SP2 Installed but WIN Update says no

I have SP2 installed successfully on my PC, but when I go to Windows Update
it says the installation failed. When I go to Control Panel, System, it
shows that SP2 is installed.

Should I worry about this, or is this a non-problem?

Thanks!

The add/remove programs entry in the control panel is created at the
beginning of SP2 install as soon as the "system backup" of SP1 is made, so
that you can uninstall. Your update probably failed at some point later,
that is what the Windows Update site is telling you. It should also be
telling you to uninstall SP2 from the control panel and reinstall it.
