time and date error

Hello, I'm getting a time and date error [Error number: 0x80072F8F] when I
try to update at the microsoft web site, however the auto update is working.
Why? The time and date are correct..

Hello MC,

What about the Time Zone for the clock?

Please go to Windows Update, do an express scan, and apply all offered

updates.

http://update.microsoft.com

See whether that gets you current---. Do you still get the error message
