Hey Hey,

nihil didn't see it but the two of you did... I'm wondering if by chance nihil visited the Windows Update site.... Microsoft Update... (which has been around for a bit now -- Mid-2005 I believe. ) is supposed to encompass updates for Windows (Including: IE, Media Player, etc), Office, Exchange and SQL (all the major products). So for it to say SQL (0) wouldn't be that bad.

WIth Windows Update (besides saying Windows Update or Microsoft Windows Update at the top)... You'll see

Software
Software (optional)
Hardware

With Microsoft Update you'll see "Windows Update" or "Microsoft Windows Update" replaced with "Microsoft Update"... Then you'll see the same list as above on the left hand side. below that you'll see "By Product" in bold... under that you'll have

Office ()
Windows ()
SQL ()

So I just ran it.. and I ran Windows Update yesterday but not Office Update... so I had

Office (9)
Windows (3) (they were listed as optional on Windows update)
SQL (0)

Also... are you positive that none of the servers have SQL (if you saw (0) updates as fourdc did, it's simply bceause of the fact that you were using Microsoft Update and not Windows update most likely)... however if you saw updates... don't forget that SQL 2005 Express and MSDE are both subject to a lot of the same updates as their counterparts (SQL 2005 adn SQL 2000)... so if you just installed an application on some systems that includes either of those products there's a good chance you'd see updates.

Peace,
HT
