I found it, copied it, registered it and not restarted my computer but this trick doesn't work...

It's a loop, loop and loop

Make sure g_sconsumersite is spelled correctly at the end. If it's spelled wrong, it won't work. Please check!

This is my first post on here but I've been following along on this long bulky thread and I'm getting an 0x80072F78 error on Windows Update, I've followed all the steps and I currently have XP SP3, what do I do? Thanks.

Hi, at first read carefully my "Complete guide for restoring Microsoft Update in IE" in this post:

Thanks, but I've already done that but I'll read them again to see if I missed anything, and also, I'm using HTTPSProxy instead of ProxHTTPSProxy now to see if I get something and now I'm getting 0x80072F8F, which says:

"Your computer's date and time appear to be out of sync with an update certificate. To fix this:
1. In Control Panel, open Date and Time Properties.
2. Ensure that the date and time are correct."

But my certificates are up to date and my time and date are correct, so I'm guessing this is coming from HTTPSProxy.
