    Yes, apparently all users get the wizard regardless of privlege and can all
    cancel. A regular user can start the process and it will complete
    correctly. It doesn't matter if the machines are in a workgroup or a
    domain, I have a bit of both on this SUS server and they behaved the same.

    The problem has been confirmed with MS, and from what I've read this morning
    on the public MS newsgroups and other mailing lists a fix is scheduled to be
    deployed through SUS later today. ( microsoft.public.softwareupdatesvcs )
