Windows Vista customers can now receive the first service pack for the operating system via the Microsoft Automatic Update service, Microsoft said Wednesday.
<A HREF="http://www.infoworld.com/article/08/04/23/Vista-SP1-released-to-Automatic-Update_1.html?source=rss&url=http://www.infoworld.com/article/08/04/23/Vista-SP1-released-to-Automatic-Update_1.html">Windows Vista Service Pack 1 will download automatically</A> to PCs that have the automatic update feature of the OS turned on, the company said. Previously, Vista SP1 was available to customers via Windows Update, but people had to specifically download it.
Not all customers will receive SP1 immediately via Automatic Update, however. The company is distributing it in phases to "ensure a seamless download experience," Microsoft said. A timeline for when all customers would receive Vista SP1 via Automatic Update was not immediately available.
