How to make the "yellow Windows Update" icon to show up on Windows XP? On Windows XP (as a Virtual PC), there is this little yellow shield icon on the task bar, which when you click on, will show the "Windows Update".

You could try going to Start -> Run... and typing wuauclt then OK, which will run the Windows Update auto-update client again. This may then trigger it to resume the downloads and/or to install the updates.
