With XP Pro, is it possible to configure a non-administrator user account
so that Windows Update will still run and install the software while the
non-admin user is logged in?

Thanks.
 
Automatic Updates runs as a Windows Service using elevated privilege.
Although I have not tested it, I think it will probably work.
