Guest nzpcmad Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 I have XP Pro SP2. This problem has recently started happening. I am behind a proxy which is configured in IE 6. (Connections - LAN settings - Advanced). I have tried just about everything suggested in this group - proxycfg etc. - and nothing works. The Windows update log shows: 2007-07-13 11:30:44:087 1368 63c Misc WARNING: WinHttp: SendRequestUsingProxy failed for <http://download.windowsupdate.com/v6/ microsoftupdate/redir/muredir.cab>. error 0x80072efd 2007-07-13 11:30:44:087 1368 63c Misc WARNING: WinHttp: SendRequestToServerForFileInformation MakeRequest failed. error 0x80072efd 2007-07-13 11:30:44:087 1368 63c Misc WARNING: WinHttp: SendRequestToServerForFileInformation failed with 0x80072efd 2007-07-13 11:30:44:087 1368 63c Misc WARNING: WinHttp: ShouldFileBeDownloaded failed with 0x80072efd 2007-07-13 11:31:26:479 1368 63c Misc WARNING: SendRequest failed with hr = 80072efd. If I try and access the URL above: http://download.windowsupdate.com/v6/microsoftupdate/redir/muredir.cab in IE, it works fine. Any ideas? Many thanks

Guest nzpcmad Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 Thanks, but I'd already tried that link. >From the article: Internet Explorer is used to access the Windows Update Web site? Yes Method 3: Internet Explorer is configured by using a user-defined proxy server value Yes proxycfg shows: C:\>proxycfg Microsoft ® WinHTTP Default Proxy Configuration Tool Copyright © Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. Current WinHTTP proxy settings under: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings \Connections\ WinHttpSettings : Direct access (no proxy server). C:\> Note. The article states "If you use Internet Explorer to specify a proxy server, the results of the proxycfg.exe command should indicate a value of Direct access (no proxy server). True. All ideas welcomed.
