I also turn off all updates. I had my Automatic updates and BITS set to manual and Windows Update wouldn't work. I never disable it but I do stop the service and leave it on manual. When you disable Automatic updates in the control panel the service keeps running. Stupid, yep..I think so too.


After you have installed the SP2 update (see my last message), then the update page DOES work for future updates as stands tight now - eg, it may not last that way for all I know.
