The easiest way to update Service Pack in your computer is to turn on Automatic Updates. To enable Automatic Updates follow the below method:
- Use Microsoft Internet Explorer to visit Microsoft Update.
- On the right side of the page, Internet Explorer displays the current status of Automatic Updates:
- If Automatic Updates is turned on, your computer is protected. Windows XP will automatically install updates. You don’t need to follow the rest of these steps.
- If Automatic Updates is turned off, click Turn on Automatic Updates.
- In the Automatic Updates window, click OK.

Have you installed any antivirus application or security suite and when exactly your current subscription expire? Have you installed any anti-spyware software as well? What about third party firewall application? If you have installed Norton or McAfee antivirus then try to disable them completely and then try to update your system with the latest Service Packs available for your operating system.
