Auto Updates????

[John]

How do I configure XP using task scheduler to rum windows
update automatically AND unattended. Each time I try it I
keep getting asked to scan for updates which defeats the
onject of trying to do it unattended. Any help please!

Not a good idea. You should review each update before installing to
determine if you really need it or not.

You can read about each update in its description in Automatic Updates
(click Details) and get full details at
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/security/current.asp.
Automatic Updates determines what updates are applicable for your computer
and offers just those. You can read more about this process and how to
configure Automatic Updates here:

I highly recommend installing critical updates to help keep your computer
secure.
