Updates gone from "Add/Remove Programs"

I am using Windows XP Home with SP-2.

About a month ago I had a long list of updates in "Add-Remove" programs.
Now they are gone and there is not a single one in the list. SP-2 is still
in there. My computer is up to date in regard to updates and I just got the
last one a few days ago.

Is this as it should be or is it possible that some one removed them
without my knowledge?

Thank you,

Robert Havens

Is the box at the top checked to show updates?
SP-2 replaces many updates so if you recently installed SP-2, that could be
the reason.

Just updated to SP2. (Went perfect, BTW) My updates in Add/Remove also gone.
Must be normal. And I say, good riddance!!

Thank you Jupiter. I have never noticed the box at the top of Add Remove
programs. I checked it and all my updates came back. I don't know how it
got unchecked.
I wish all my problems could be solved that easy.
Thanks much,
Bob Havens
