If it's like XP RC 2 you will be able to turn off auto updates &
firewall.  SP 2 is just enabling those by default.

Will I be able to stop it from auto-downloading the patches by default? 

After the auto-downlaod I hope I can stop, will I be able to to stop the
auto-install (in case I can't stop the auto-download, of course)? 

You see, I am worried about the auto-install following the auto-download
auto-breaking my apps.
