Greg--
I tried your approach, but it didn't work. However, I still thought you
might be onto something. So I tried replacing the old card with a brand new
network card, with drivers for the latest operating systems, and that did the
trick.

several weeks.
I have a pc which uses ICS to connect all the clients in my home network to
the internet. WU would not work on either client. Kept getting 80072ee2
failure when searching for updates. Tried every solution I could find on the
internet.
Finally I added up all the symptoms, one of which that I could not load
other https pages, could not even reach the windows update site without using
the proxy. Well, I decided the problem could be the ethernet connection from
the ICS Host to the home network.
Removed the ethernet device from within device manager, rebooted and let XP
home reinstall the device. After that, the clients could run Windows Update.
sheesh, what a hassle figuring this out was.
Anyhow, if anyone gets the 8072ee2 error and you've tried the other
solutions, try what I did. I'm thinking that there was a problem with dropped
packets or tcp/ip communication.
Hope this helps someone!!
