Automatic Updates

Description

Enables the download and installation of Windows updates. If this service is disabled, this computer will not be able to use the Automatic Updates feature or the Windows Update Web site. BlackViper.com adds: Used to check up to see if there is any critical or otherwise updates available for download. After the installation of Service Pack 1 or 2, you may configure how often updates are checked. Using default values, Windows XP automatically checks for updates at 3AM, downloads the updates and asks to install them. I do not recommend that you disable Automatic Updates. It is very important that if you decide to disable this service, you check the Windows Update Version 6 web site often to ensure the latest patches install properly. Take note: Manual updates via Windows Update Version 6 web site still requires Automatic Updates, Cryptographic Services, Background Intelligent Transfer Service, and Event Log to be running.
