I thought we'd already covered this?

1. Install (only) SP3 (via Automatic Update, Windows Update, or manually)
& reboot twice.

2. Go to Windows Update | Select CUSTOM & scan | Install any critical
security updates (only) offered by Windows Update.

3. Install IE7 per instructions in my reply to your earlier thread; reboot
twice.

4. Return to Windows Update | Select CUSTOM & scan | Install the Root
Certificates update (listed in Optional category).

Tonight I decided it was time to update my new laptop to SP3. It
currently
is running WinXP Pro SP2. I clicked on the Automatic Update shield and
discovered 22 available updates, including SP3 and IE7. My question:
Would
it be best to uncheck everything but SP3 for now and do the rest after I
know for sure that SP3 has been installed?

Thanks much!
