Is your clock and Time Zone also the Date set properly?

Please go to Windows Update, do an express scan, and apply all offered
updates.
http://update.microsoft.com
See whether that gets you current---. Do you still get the error message?

ERROR_INTERNET_SECURE_FAILURE ErrorClockWrong

One or more errors were found in the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
certificate sent by the server.

Check the clock to ensure that it's set correctly. If that's not the
issue, then post the issue to the LongHorn Beta newsgroup via Connect:

Hi
Also getting this on my vista Ultimate x 64 bit..
ALL updates had been applied then suddenly few days ago this message about
"Windows could not search for updates" error code 80072F8F.
The KB is of little help only really telling me what I already know.
Checked time (even synchronised with online time server.) all OK but still
no joy?

I only disabled the "Check all encrypted connections" in Kaspesky Internet
Security, and Windows Update connected. This option can be found under
network settings.

I was not able to check for updates because my computer clock was set to 2006.

Updating to the correct date and time worked.
Thanks!

Thanks for mentioning the year your computer was set to; I'd checked mine
over 20 times today trying to resolve this problem and didn't realise it
wasn't set to 2009 (it was 2008) - a minor oversight kept me glued to my seat
and frustrated! Thanks a million for saying yours was set to 200 - it was
the lightbulb I needed.
