MS pulls plugs on XP SP3 mass launch

Update roll-up

Does anyone know what catagory SP3 will be for WSUS?

Remember the IE7 rubbish where it was catagorised as a "Critical Update" and forced its self on the corporate network if you had WSUS set-up as default?

Anyway, I don't allow any automatic updating from WSUS server until its gone through the test network.

I know in IIS that you can force certain pages to use only https, so I don't think this is an IE problem.

Rather, the sysadmins have decided not to force https, only reason I think of is because of performace reasons.
