How do I remove SP2 files

[Jb]

Sorry this may have been asked before.
I downloaded SP2 via the windows update tool. I started to install it
but found I didn't have enough disk space so I terminated the install.
I'm not going to get enough space to do this for some time so I want to
delete the SP2 install files. How do I do this? Do I delete the SP2
Hotfix items (like Q322011 etc) using Add/ Remove Programs??
Thanks, jb.

Hi Wes
Unfortunately this assumes SP2 is actually installed. I haven't
installed it, I just want to get rid of the install files downloaded
using Windows update. Any other suggestions?
Thanks very much, jb
