You will also be able to script an installation that does not turn on either
by default for your LAN.  If you are installing the service pack on more
than a couple of machines, you may want customization anyways.

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.
