>From what I've been able to discern (when I put effort into it a couple years ago), most of the update related data sent is obfuscated unless you look at *where* it's going. Like, XPProSP2 goes to this server, SP1 goes somewhere else, Office2K3 goes somewhere else, etc etc. A picture can be made of what's installed by watching where traffic goes, so to speak.

I have a user concerned with the amount of information being transferred

regarding what info is transferred when a windows machine does an
update? Did a bit of cursory sniffing myself, but the amount of
information is large and kind of have a short suspense on this. Any
help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
