no updates since october 13 (winxp prof)

I have a habit of frequent visiting the windowsupdate site. Also my system
is set to notify me if there are any updates, using automatic update.

I realised it was quite some time ago that un update was available, so I
checked the installation history. It tells me that tha last update was
october 13, almost 2 months ago.

I am wondering whether this is correct or is there somehow an update failure
(I have heard this to happen)

BTW: this is true for all three categories of updates that winupdate offers

Thanks

Gerard

Hi Torgeir,

I'd like to think about this as very good news.
Must be strange for Bill Gates. Firste evenryone is complaining that there
are way too many updates, and now I was complaining about the oposite.

But thanks, it feels good knowing I have my security up to date
