SP2 with Automatic Update

[Georgy]

I subscribe to automatic updates on my XP system.
Yesterday I received a message from Microsoft saying that
my Service Pack 2 updates were ready to be downloaded and
then installed. It asked me to click if I wanted the
download to proceed. I did. The balloon went away.
That was during the morning. I waited for it to come
back and tell me the download was complete and to prompt
me to allow it to go on with the installation. It never
did. Even as we speak, more than a day later, the update
process has not got to where it's asking me to go ahead
with the install. What am I to make of this?
