I am always checking for Visual Studio 2005 updates, from within the Visual Studio application. But all I ever get auto updated is Windows XP, of the last 40 or 50 updates, all I have gotten are windows XP updates. It seems that I would have gotten at least one update for standard edition C# since I installed my original copy

I don't think there has been any yet, there will be a service pack soon as I understood it.

You will find now that most updates will be delivered through the microsoft update site... This will include all microsoft products. At the moment you will notice that SQL Server 2005 sp1 is on the update site, and most people using WSUS are starting to have it downloaded to there servers, I know I did with my SBS Installs.
