1311778 2012-11-11 01:02:00 Whenever I use my Windows 7 PC it says it cannot connect to Windows Update. It comes up with 8024402f as the error. I have run the program it suggests to fix it but it still will not connect to Windows Update.

Could McAfee be causing the problem?

1311779 2012-11-11 01:06:00 Wouldnt be surprised if Mcafee is the cause. Its not that great. It'll probably crash the computer sooner or later. One thing its good at. Disable it, then see if it works. If it does thats probably the culprit Speedy Gonzales (78)
1311780 2012-11-11 01:11:00 Disable the antivirus? QW. (15883)
1311781 2012-11-11 01:17:00 Is it the AV or does it include the firewall?? If it includes the firewall disable it Speedy Gonzales (78)
1311782 2012-11-11 01:20:00 Think it is both the antivirus and firewall. QW. (15883)
1311783 2012-11-11 01:21:00 Disable it then in its options, then see if windowsupdate works Speedy Gonzales (78)
1311784 2012-11-11 01:36:00 No luck with turning the antivirus and the firewall off. Still not connecting to Windows Update QW. (15883)
1311785 2012-11-11 01:41:00 What does it say under ipv4 under the network/LAN connection??

I take it this can get on the net / it loads sites?

Get this, run it then tick all options except the last one (www.bleepingcomputer.com). Post the text that comes up, after you click on scan and after it finishes scanning

1311786 2012-11-11 02:50:00 Dont bother pissing about running various fix it programs, total waste of time.

Have a look at the following thread- EXACT same problem same error message, and fix. pressf1.pcworld.co.nz

Direct link to actual fix, use method #8 support.microsoft.com
