I never got a percentage either, but is there one for Jaws to read?  It wasn't 
the normal download screen when downloading that puppy.

Thanks,

  Hey all,

  I attempted to use Windows Update to download Service Pack 3 (XP Pro 
version), and before I clicked on the download button, was informed by Windows 
Update that the SP3 download was a whopping 66 mb, and at my slow dial-up 
connection would take 6 hours.

  Groaning, I clicked on the download button, then clicked on the license "I 
agree" button and the download process began. JAWS never gave me any feedback 
on percentage of download complete, even after 2 hours, and the dialogue box 
gave no info either, other than saying that the SP3 download was in process.

  I finally gave up and clicked on the cancel button.

  Has anyone else had this problem with JAWS not giving any feedback on the 
percentage of the SP3 download?

  Alan
