Is it possible to see just exactly what windows is downloading
automatically, when the icon is on the bottom right corner of the task bar.
Its going really slow. Its at 34% and probably wont advance much more than
that today. If it is the sp2 that is trying to download, can I stop it.
See, I got my cd in the mail and would rather do it that way as soon as I
learn more about installation and precautions.

Thanks so very much for your help-! ! ! !

Disconnect your internet connection if you want to stop your download
immediately. And don't worry you can resume your download later.

If I were u so I will choose "Notify me, but dont automatically download or
install them" rather than "Autmatically download" from automatic updates
option at control panel so I can choose to download bigger or smaller file
first and also I can see a download progress bar more detail.
