Clearing out an error

Error Type: System Error
Error Date: 11/27/2006 10:02:31 PM
Error Description: Error: Agent failed detecting with reason: 0x8007000e

I've found that deleting the software distribution folder and ensuring I had the latest and greatest ISA firewall client loaded up tend to clear up that error.

http://www.tech-faq.com/0x800a0007-windows-update-error.shtml I read that ...but the time was fine, the time zone was fine, and yet still I kept getting that error with certain workstations.

So ensure you have the latest ISA client http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=45855498-66BA-43D3-A8F1-37837D380389 installed as that helps with Windows Defender as well.  I've yet to see a Visa capable version of that firewall client though...

I'll try deleting the software distribution directory, but I don't use ISA on my workstations...

I'm seeing this on SBS R2 - when patches are rolled out.  Been fighting it for two weeks now.
