Ok, still check what version of WindowsXP you do have installed by following
instructions in my previous reply. But if you are receiving that message I
would think you don't have SP3 installed and also don't have Automatic Updates
turned on.

Yes. Go here and download the stand-alone Windows XP SP3 package from the
following Microsoft Download Center page.
Although this page says that the installation package is intended for IT
professionals and developers, you can safely download and install this file.
