Guest elp70 Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 I have been unable to download SP2 for XP using Automatic Updates or by manually downloading the very large SP2 update file. I am receiving a message I have not seen in the discussion groups that I've checked: 'You chose to skip all available updates, so no changes were made to your computer.' I have been able to download and install the other non SP2 updates. I simply can't download SP2. I have validated Windows. When I look for the details on another update screen, I see the following: ' The following updates were not installed Windows XP Service Pack 2 Problem: End User License Agreement (EULA) Not Accepted' Can anyone help point me in the right direction? I can't seem to figure out what went wrong. I've done a Windows installation on various computers about a dozen times without this problem. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Guest TaurArian [MS-MVP] Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 This behavior may occur if a third-party content filtering program, such as Guard-IE or GuardWall.com is installed on your computer. These types of programs may prevent a message or a dialog box, such as a dialog box that displays the EULA, from appearing. -- ==================================== TaurArian [MS-MVP] 2005-2008 - Australia ==================================== How to make a good post: http://www.dts-l.org/goodpost.htm Defending your machine: http://defendingyourmachine2.blogspot.com/ http://taurarian.mvps.org/index.htm Emails will not be acknowledged - please post to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

Guest elp70 Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 Thanks - this is what happened. I thought I had disabled the pop-up blocker but I guess I hadn't. When I turned off the pop-up blocker I was able to sign the EULA which I hadn't seen before.
