After Acception Windows XPSP2 in AU Icon disappears and nothing is downloaded

Hi,

If you have the Automatic Updates feature configured to notify you before
download you may experience the following behavior:


1. You are notified that Windows XP Service Pack 2 is available

2. After accepting the download, nothing happens (AU icon in systray might
came up temporarily indicating 0% download)


This behavior is expected due to Windows Update controlling the rate at
which Windows XP Service Pack 2 is released. For the health of the overall
internet, the Service Pack needs to be slowly released to machines. This
prevents the internet ecosystem from becoming overburdened.

Thank You,

Eric

The internet has an "ecosystem" now??? It's alive? Did Al Gore do that?
