Not at all related to your issue, but I do manual downloads on most ofthe pcs here. The Windows 2000 (those are getting replaced in a coupleof weeks!) all had 9 updates, but the Windows XP Pro machines had either10, 11, or 13, *not* the 12 I was expecting. All were checked last weekand were all current. All were checked again either yesterday or todayafter the updates were installed and the reboot was done, and all arecurrent. I have no idea why pcs I purchased 4 months ago, update on thesame schedule, and running the same software would have a differentnumber of Windows updates. In case it makes a difference, all of thesealso use Cornerstone from CenturionGuard, which prevents users (patrons)from making permanent changes to the pcs.

One staff member does have her pc setup for automatic updates, and itdidn't update automatically. Or maybe it was handled just like yoursituation was, and when I checked yesterday, 11 updates were shown, andthat is what I downloaded and installed.
