Some will add sites to their safe list, others will disable the popup blocker. So I think it'll still be a way to generate revenue, the rev. will just dip down. It's up to the pps program to come up with a new way of generating income.

And some will have a lot of problems then they have installed to SP2. Many programs/Games will not work, therefore many will not update.
Others still use 95/98/2000 and there is no SP2 for them. Allso cracked versions of XP will not be able to update.
