I have two Windows 7 computers connected to a Windows 2003 Small Business Server, neither computer has updated since 2/16/2011. When I try to run the update I get error 80072EE2, a few times I received error 8024400E - I received the second error after

having turned off Norton Firewall. Here is what I've tried: I ran Microsoft Fix It -- which said it fixed the problem but didn't; I added Windows update sites to Firewall allow list; then I killed Norton Firewall; then I killed all Norton software; then logged

in as server admin on the work station with Norton still down; then logged in as a local user with Norton still down.

 

EDIT: Both computers are running 32 bit Windows 7 Pro, one of the computers is running a 64bit AMD processor the other is an Intel.
