I see there's no update for XP WMP 8.x -
Have MS stopped supporting it already?

Thanks Chris. Updates installed on both systems fine. Just wanted to note
that for me, installing took a little longer than usual. The progress bar
didn't move real fast but the hard drive light was busy so walked away to
let the update do its thing. Eventually the restart notice showed up.
