Mary Jo Foley says Microsoft Pushes Back Automatic Delivery of SP2:
August 16 was set to be D-day for the automatic delivery of Microsoft’s Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2).
But at the last minute, the Redmond software vendor decided to push back by at least nine days the Windows Update/Automatic Update launch date for its collection of security fixes and features. Microsoft cited customer demand as the reason for the delay.
So if you’re waitig for Automatic Update to kick in, you’ll need to wait a bit longer.
