Any one with experience d/l and instal the SP2 Blocker.

I prefer to hold off installing SP2 Auto Update for a while, and
continue to receive other updates.

cheers-Herb.

You don't have to worry for awhile as the windows update page says that
they're experiencing an overload of request for SP2 so it's not available.
Still when they do start up again. You will be prompted to d/l SP2 clk
cancel. Another screen will come up encouraging you to D/L it but if you look
at the screen there will be another box that says "do not ask me again" or
something to that affect. Just clk yes after you cancel the d/l again
