[djaynb]

My current employer is an ISP, and have seen numourous
SP2 connectability issues. I personally do not see the
need Win XP SP2 update. How do I avoid having it in my
list of Windows updates and or deleted from that list?

Thanks..

Hi

To avoid that Windows Updates/Automatic Updates tries to install
SP2 at all (up to 12. April 2005):

Toolkit to Temporarily Block Delivery of Windows XP SP2 to a PC
Through Automatic Updates and Windows Update

Run the XPSP2BlockerTools.exe in the link above. It will extract
several files to the folder you specify.

Then run XPSP2Blocker.exe to activate the blockage (it will create
the registry value described in the link above).
