Auto Updates and Available Updates

I updated to SP2 and set to Automatic Update. I ran an express update today
and found that Microsoft .net SP1 had not updated so I want to know how to
ensure my auto updates take place.

Also, I am running media player 9 - I ran a custom install on updates but
there are no updates available - has anyone else experience problems with
updates just not showing on the list and how can it be fixed?

I am worried that I may miss critical updates when the time comes.

Hi

Please check the following log files for any clues or other
error messages:

%windir%\WindowsUpdate.log
%windir%\SoftwareDistribution\ReportingEvents.log (note that the
text goes pretty far out to the right).

(%windir% is typically C:\Windows)
