SP2 is very stable for my network of 5 stations in my home and seems to be working fine with the companies I consult.
I highly reccomend SP2.
BUT!
If you do video work some applications will bug out with SP2.
Which do have HOTFIXES for the most part now.

I have not had to run a single spyware or anti-virus software since installing SP2 and have had a total of 0 problems. However, you must be literate to install a service pack successfully.Comment

It gave me blue screen the first time it was released but tried again last month and it works great nowComment

No problems.Comment

According to the latest stats, 70% have no problems after installation, 30% have some problems.
Out of the 30%, 10% (1/3rd) have severe problems, 1% get major problems resulting in blue screens and are unable to boot up windows even in safe mode.
So the odds are you won't have problems, but if you do they can really create a mess.

SP2 itself seems fine overall, but I'm noticing weird behavior lately ...
1 . My modem no longer obtains its IP address automatically (have since hardcoded the numbers in to get it working) - dhcp stopped working the other day - any ideas? ... disabled firewall and hoping eventually dhcp starts working again.
2. Occasionally get blue screens on bootup - errors reference hardware configuration ... likely a driver / startup program compatibility problem of some sort.
Perhaps the Webstar 100/200 modem driver isn't fully compatible with SP 2 ... and/or something else ... anyways, every patch since XP2 seems to be making my entire computer less stable ... not sure how many more patches my PC can take before it just dies.

Think I found the problem ...
Errors When Uninstalling Norton AntiVirus Software
http://www.bl.com/moshe/text/quiddit...on_errors.html
I uninstalled Norton Antivirus the other day and it turns it Norton doesn't uninstall completely - it leaves in some registry entries that prevent DHCP from functioning properly.
Big relief ... could also explain the blue screens I've been occasionally getting at startup.
Now I can back to work

haha that's funny because I have a MSI mobo and the last time I tried updating my bios it made me start blue screening. Ended up having to reformat to fix it, because it somehow screwed up windows.In November, you can vote for America's next president or its first dictator.Comment

I waited until it was in Windows Update a couple of weeks to install it. My DSL wouldn't connect the next day. I did System Restore then reinstalled sp2 and haven't had any problems since..Comment

nothing happened to my pc. my roommate lost use of her dsl for a bit, but its working fine now.Comment

I was also a blue screen recipient and I ain't gonna touch SP2 until it's necessary..
Also as I use Pinnacle Studio 9 that's another reason not to install it. Microcrap even have a page on line that tells you the programmes SP2 can and will fuck up. It was posted here originally but I lost it when I had to re-format after the first SP2 install.. DUH

70% doesn't sound too good to me. I think I'll wait until that number is closer to 100. I can't believe they actually released a patch with this many errors. What did they do, test it on one PC and than give it a go ahead? Fuck me, it isn't even if it is holes being uncovered, it is totally fucking up computers from the minute they install it. Fucking insane, I won't touch it until those numbers are much much better.Comment
