WindowsUpdate TurboMode

(June 21, 2003) Bitstop is opening up our SUS server (Windows Software Update Server) to Philippine Internet Users. This server stores all of the patches from the Microsoft Windows Update site.

Updates sourced from our server would be faster specially for all our internet clients, and those peered with ASTI, MIX, Mozcom, Digitel, PLDT, Eastern and Globe.

The catch is, you need to edit your registry to point your machine to using our SUServer. Here are the entries you need to make:

HKLMSoftwarePoliciesMicrosoftWindows WindowsUpdateAU

NoAutoUpdate, Reg_Dword, 0
AUOptions,Reg_Dword,3
UseWUServer,Reg_Dword,1

HKLMSoftwarePoliciesMicrosoftWindows WindowsUpdate

WUServer,reg_sz, http://202.91.161.132
WUStatusServer,reg_sz, http://202.91.161.132

Or you can download and install this reg file as a shortcut.
