XP Pro, SP2. I have auto updates on, and it did not update

to SP3. Good. How do I make sure it does not?

 

HP computer, XP home. Update to latest. It tried to install

SP3. What is the difference?

Turn off automatic updates and manually check Windows Update once a

month after the second Tuesday.

 

Choose "Custom", so that you can see the list of available updates.

 

When you find SP3 on the list, hide it so it won't show again.

 

Always do manual updates from that point onward.
