Windows update continues to work for XP, with a

Just this month it started sending data back to
microsoft. Anyway Zone Alarm asks for permission
and it won't complete the update without it.

Perhaps a record of what the previous month's has
found?




On XP, Windows update will work for Microsoft components other than the
operating system itself. So it's normal that updates for MSE will keep
coming. I'm sure they will as well for Media Player and Office etc.


philo, I'm going to install XP on this machine that has Win2000. Any advice on how to set it up so that I can boot to a menu and choose one or the other?
