[signed] I was wondering if anyone else has lost control of the auto-updating feature of windows xp? When I go into the control panel of almost all of my window xp pro computer the auto-update settings are grayed out and unable to change them. Did this "feature" come down in a windows update or is it some dormant setting that was for some reason activated? Any help on this? It's driving me bonkers!
