I recently received an notification from MS via auto-update that SP2 was
available for download. When i try to update using windows update i get no
notification that SP2 is available for download from the site. I'm
confused...is it available or not? If it is available, why aren't I getting
any indications that it is?

I've turned my settings to receive updates so it isn't that either.
