Microsoft expands release of Windows XP update
Seattle: Microsoft Corp is starting to ramp up distribution of its massive security update for the Windows XP operating system.

Microsoft is expecting to gradually increase the rate of distribution through automatic updates, with most receiving it within two months.

Windows XP users also will be able to download the upgrade directly from Microsoft's support Web site, or order a free CD version. Businesses who use Windows XP Professional also will begin receiving the update through an automatic download, if they have agreed to that service.
