'Downloading Updates' in Windows XP Pro.

Whilst happily PPRuNe-ing, I noticed an unusual icon on the system tray. Moving the cursor over it reveals the caption 'Downloading Updates'......

It must be a pretty big 'Update' as the computer has been downloading it at 46.6 Kbps and has so far received 14,171,940 bytes and is only 48% complete.

But what is this all about? Is it an OS update or what? The only programs I have which might update are Encarta (I updated that myself yesterday) and Norton Antivirus which normally looks after itself by updating when it chooses to.

Anyone got any ideas? Now 14,666,112 bytes received and still only 49% complete!
