Default XP Pro sp3 updates fail

updates are presented again. Anyone know how to remedy this.

Thanks, John.



The problem seems to be on Microsoft's end.

I've have a lot of machines on my bench lately and all the Win7 machines
have been updating smoothly but XP has been quite erratic.

Just a hunch but I bet MS is delegating most of their server power to
their newer OS's.
