I've just done a complete re-install of my XP Pro SP1.
I would like to get the system back to more or less where it was just prior
to SP2's release.
If I change the settings to automatic update will this mean that SP2 will be
installed ?


TIA
Tony

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
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...BA-EA5D-4425-89C1-C1CB1CCD463C&displaylang=en

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).


This will not block you from installing SP2 from e.g. the SP2 CD
later on...
