I though the Microsoft Updates website was running blazing fast lately, but I don't know if it's a combination of them updating Windows Updates or me just having installed IE8. In any event it's much faster without taking as long as before.

Are you guys talking about the update to Windows Update that I gave in the link, or the Windows Update website?

That was my issue running XP Pro, but like I stated above it's now fast. It's about time too, I had always thought they had some server overload or something.
