Microsoft does not list them that way at Windows Update, or anywhere else
for that matter.

If you visited Windows Update and got everything, then you should be good to
go.

Look around here if you like...

Microsoft Security Bulletin Search

Hope this helps. Let us know.

Hi Wesley....Thank you for your input...It is much appreciated...I have
already been to the Auto update page earlier this week...I am confused...When
I check to see what time I receive the auto updates the first page states
everyday at 3 AM...when I go into "more options" it states everyday at 9
PM...which is what I set the time for....why does it still show 3 AM on the
first page...Is this because of the time zones...??? I live in New
Zealand....I certainly don't want to be getting up at 3 Am just to update win
XP & SP2....LOL....I think this is why I never got the Auto updates on
Wednesday & had to download them myself...Thanx
