See: Windows Update page says "Thank you for your interest in obtaining
updates from our site."
http://www.winhelponline.com/articles/35/1/

For future reference, it would be better to post to the Windows Update
site -
Windows Update newsgroup:
(OE newsreader)
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof....windowsupdate
or
(Web)
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/e...&lang=en&cr=US

Xposted to Windows Update should further assistance be required.
