A posting by "PCWorld"; "Users who rely on Windows'
Automatic Updates feature for patches, but don't want SP2
to be downloaded automatically, can block the download by
setting a registry key that will instruct the system to
skip service pack, but still download other critical
updates. A tool to set this key is available on
Microsoft's Web site."
My question is "where might I find the article on
changing the registry key"?
