Microsoft Update v6

I am running XP SP2 and have an accelorator for my web pages. I know when I
visit the updates site I have to turn it off and everything works OK. The
question I have is this. If I have my settings set for automatically download
and install new updates, will this work with the accelorator? Or would it be
just as easy to go to the site every now and then and turn it off and check
in myself? Hope you can make some sense of this because I am just wondering
if the accelorator would screw things up while tring to install and download
the updates.\
Thanks in advance.

Just a guess, but I don't think the AU background activities would be
harmed by having things the accelorator on.

You can test it by entering "wuauclt.exe /detectnow" on the Start/Run
line. In a few minutes AU will kick in. When that is done you can
check the WindowsUpdate.LOG file in your Windows folder. Scroll down to
the bottom to see the info for the recent AU session, and look for any
errors. If none, you are OK. If you see errors, make a note of them
and investigate from there.
