No offered updates since March 12

On two computers in my home (xp sp3) there are no automlatic updates offered
since Mrch 12 and no updates available at the site either. Is this something
Microsoft is doing intentionally? I'm going to download IE8 ... wondering if
this will make a difference in some wierd way?

Updates are offered on the 2nd Tuesday of the month. It's not time, yet.
