Vista Service Pack 1 Leaked Out

Microsoft has accidentally leaked out Vista SP1. Some Vista users have found Vista SP1 in Windows update this week, even though Vista SP1 is not supposed to be officially released until next month.

Microsoft acknowledged the error: "Yesterday, a build of SP1 was posted to Windows Update and it was inadvertently made available to a broad group. The build was intended only for our more technically advanced testers, and was meant to only be offered to those with a specific registry key set on their PC," Microsoft said in a statement. It also reiterated plans to make SP1 broadly available in mid-March.

Some users reported that they successfully downloaded SP1 from Windows Update, but most others said that the download didn't work for them.
