Downloaded SP2 but don't want to Install...How?

I finally finished the SP2 downlaod but have decided to
get the CD instead. However the Task Bar pop-up bugs me
continually to install the download. How can I stop this
and delete the download?

Hi

Clean out the Download folder (WU5's temporary download folder)
located here:

%windir%\SoftwareDistribution\

(%windir% is typically C:\Windows)

You can use the procedure described here:

http://v5.windowsupdate.microsoft.co...cleid=11&ln=en

You might need to delete the DataStore folder mentioned in the link
above, as well as the EventCache folder.

Note that a side effect of deleting the DataStore folder is that you
lose your WU v5 History listing (not critical).
