Default XP Automatic upgrades question

I have my computer set to automatically download and install
upgrades,hot fixes etc for XP.
I am on a POT line here at home and for some of the larger files it
takes forever to download them. I usually leave my computer connected
to the Internet overnight so that this process can occur.
Is there any way to display what files are being downloaded while this
is happening?
The little shield icon in the tool bar tells what percentage of the
file has been downloaded, but no other information.

Default Re: XP Automatic upgrades question

Not that I'm aware of. I do however suggest you do manual updates. I.E.
Turn off auto updates and whenever you have time
just click on Windows Update and you'll see what is available and can decide
whether or not you want it. Also if it is large
you can download at night if you so choose.
