When updating windows 7 I get the following response: Windows could not search for updates An error occurred while checking for updates for your computer error(s) found code 80072ee2 windows encountered an unknown error 

click here to     get help with this error

When I do this - get help - the "fix" doesn't fix it and I eventually come back to this same window

The last time I was able to update windows 7 was in December 2011.

This same problem has happened before but the "fix" fixed it some time.

I get the same error when I open internet explorer.

Hi,

I don't know the exact fix for your problem, but there is a thread on the Microsoft answers page that talks about this error message being related to a particular key.

And if you remove that key, you can fix Windows update. See below for the detailed information and scroll to the bottom to see where someone found the fix:
