RE: How To Fix Windows Update [BITS/AU]

A truly amazing post Mike
This has to be one of the most detailed set of instructions I've ever read
Brilliant, but could you please update this for SP3 users
I'm tearing out my hair trying to get SP3 WU working
It died on several machines which were updated to SP3 back in November and
they continually report that no updates are available to download although
clearly there are many, including a rather important one last week !
Best wishes
