Default Automatic Updates

For some reason, my automatic update will not work. The security icon
popped up saying that automatic updates had been turned off. But if I go to
the security center to turn it on, I cannot click on anything. Everything
is "grayed out". The box for "Turn off Automatic Updates" is checked, but
grayed out as well. I can't click on anything in the automatic update box.
I had to install some new printer software this afternoon that came down from
my HQ. It added some entried into my registry, but I don't know what they
were. Could that have caused the problem, and if so, how can I fix it?

My system is Windows XP SP2, Intel Pentium M @ 1.3GHz, 512MB RAM.

Thanks for the help.

Default RE: Automatic Updates

Nevermind.............I found where they changed a registry setting for
automatic updates from 0 to 1. I changed it back and all is working now.
