I foolishly, foolishly, installed KB 982130. WGA. The update from hell.
How do I get rid of it?

1. What registry entries to kill?
2. What files to delete?

Using System Restore to return to a recent Restore Point would be the
simplest way. registrywise

Thanks. I'll do that. It should take me back to Update v5, which
wasn't working. Is there a way I can download and install v4?

yw.. Not sure about installing v4, but, I think if you visit the initial
stage of Windows Update, and quit at the appropriate time, you can install
the latest version of the Windows Update software, without installing the
Validation tool.

Quit Windows Update when you reach the prompt to install new software, after
clicking "Custom"

Why do you think you need to "get rid of it"?

If you're running WinXP with WGA, Windows Update should now default to V6
Engine. You cannot go back to V4 in WinXP.
