   Iv asked previously in XP groups and noone knows what level of XP   
   service switchoff (if any) MS is going to take for XP in April.  If you   
   want to be safe, update your WSUS in March so you have a separate HDD   
   with all the updates downloaded from MS into your WSUS client folders,   
   this amounts to more than 10 GB of data, and try it out so you know your   
   installation definitely works. NB - Support for earlier versions of   
   Office ends at the same time I think, WSUS does all those as well as   
   .NET etc.etc. And do some practice runs, WSUS is not a complete doddle   
   to use! C+
