Re: Error 80072EFD....yet again

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Oh yeah....(%Program Files%\Update Services\Log Files\SoftwareDistribution.log)
does not exist on WS2000. I did find \WINNT\system32\config\software.log but
couldn't open it: "The process cannot access the file because it is being
used by another process."

Still trying to detemine if WSUS is in use.

Windows Update. I even tried disabling all of these to allow "ALL". No go.
Turned Real Time Virus Scan off on the test client and the IP Traffic
Server. No go. What am I missing? Any ideas? By the way, this all started
when a particular client's IE could no longer identify/use a personal
digital certificate required to access one of our sites required to
process
a critical function. Thanks for any help!!!!!
