My symptoms are slightly different. I have recently reinstalled XP SP2 and have already received a few updates.

I have updates et to download and let me choose whether to install. I do not want updates for modules I don't use.

My understanding is that SP3 will be downloaded at some time in the near future.

What is happening now is that the update icon is appearing in the icon tray and regular checking sees the percentage rise. My calculations are that it will take about 24 hours. No problem I have left it all night twice now. Both time when I recheck the percentage has gone down as if it had restarted. So far, since the problem started I have not received any updates in full.

BITS is running so I will try the other suggestion and report back

BTW I have stopped all other downloads but the Windows update does not speed up.
