If you are using AutoUpdate, does the computer only check for updates each time you turn on the computer, or does it check every few minutes?
P.S. I have XP sp2 and haven't gotten any updates and it's 8:05PM which is weird. |

That would depend upon how you're set it up LINK
I got notification this morning, clicked to download the updates and haven't seen the yellow shield since.
Just be patient, there are a few updates and many wanting them.

Check your windowsupdate.log as to when it last checked.
Otherwise just be patient or in the alternative, do a manual scan (although that puts everyone else waiting for AU back in the queue). -- -------------------------------- TaurArian [MVP] 2005-2009 Update Services LINK

I'm set at "Notify me but don't...." hence I can't select a time of day.
