Hi Chris - Just a followup. FYI:

The newly released 'standalone' version of Windows Update Agent 3.0, v.
7.0.6000.374, for 32 bit machines is available here:
http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7/windowsupdate/redist/standalone/WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe

You will also need to install or re-install KB927891, here:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=927891 for a complete fix.


For those using Windows Server - Courtesy of Bobby Harter, Program Manager,
WSUS, Microsoft, WSUS 3.0 was released on April 30th and is avaialble now on
the Microsoft Download Center. Full information, documentation, samples and
links to the bits can be found here: http://www.microsoft.com/wsus. WSUS
3.0 RC will be supported until May 31st 2007 - WSUS 3.0 supports upgrade of
WSUS 2.0 SP1 and WSUS 3.0 RC.

The MS WSUS team believes that this solves all three 'svchost' problems that
folks have been experiencing. See here:
