Carey, when, in reply to a question, you post a link to the article
"Window Vista Service Pack 1 is not available for installation
from Windows Update and is not offered by Automatic Update",
I think some people are interpreting your post as a statement of fact
from you, rather than the title of a KB article dealing with an issue.
Windows Update does not offer SP1 to me, and I think it is because the
Microsoft file ks.sys is on my machine, and Microsoft Update says it is
not compatible with SP1. I understand that Microsoft is currently
working an update for ks.sys.
If this is correct, then this might be the reason others are not seeing
SP1 listed at Windows Update either.
