I did two things and I'm not sure what one it was. I came across a thread of someone you were helping and I put in the commands you told the one person to do like REG LOAD, and I also decided to try turning off Windows Firewall. When I went back to Windows Update it said that I needed to update and install the newer version of Windows Update before I could install anything else. It currently is "Downloading and Installing Updates".
it should be OK - but don't do any surfing, or you could find yourself getting infected in two minutes flat!
It apparently installed the updates but it seems there was some error cause Service Pack 1 still isn't showing and I seriously need it, I'm getting the 80072EFE error again, and in the list of installed updates there is one that can't be uninstalled that is KB2533552. All that installed were security and Windows updates.
I tried the NETSH command you said and rebooted but it didn't fix it.

OK - please open an Elevated Command Pompt and run the following command...
IPCONFIG /ALL
Post the results...
Here are some instructions to make life easier :)
1) To open an Elevated Command Prompt Window (the ECP window), click on Start, All Programs, Accessories – then right-click on Command Prompt, and select Run as Administrator. Accept the UAC prompt.
2) To run the commands easier, highlight the block of commands, and right-click on the highlight – select Copy. In the CP Window, click on the black/white icon at top left – select Paste. The commands will run but may not complete the last command, so hit the Enter Key once.
3) To copy the results... click on the Black/White icon in the top left, and select Edit... 'Select All', and hit the Enter key - then use Ctrl+V or r-click+Paste to paste it into your response.
