It's Summertime and it's WSUStime

That's right it's WSUS clean up time.  If you are not doing a regular schedule.. once a month.. once a quarter ...once a Solstice... to clean up your WSUS, now's the time to do so....

Go into the WSUS console on SBS 2003 or SBS 2008 and click on each of those categories one at a time and run those clean up routines.

I found a very nice utility in CodePlex.  I create a scheduled task with the .exe, and it cleans WSUS automatically.

"How to increase your bandwidth use every month."

I've found a cleanup more often than once a year is pretty useless.  A new client may want a piece of software that you cleaned up well over 6 months ago.  Disk space is cheap.

+1 on the clean-up utility. Don't forget the DB maintenance.
