WINDOWS Service Pack 2 (SP2) coming...
 
Quote:

Windows XP security gets tighter

CHANGES DUE IN SP2
Pop-up ads blocked
Revamped firewall on by default
Outlook Express, Internet Explorer and Windows Messenger warn about attachments
Origins of downloaded files logged
Web graphics in e-mail no longer loaded by default
Some spyware blocked
Users regularly reminded about Windows Updates
Security Centre brings together information about anti-virus, updates and firewall
Protection against buffer over-runs
Windows Messenger Service turned off by default

...

"This is a fundamentally different kind of service pack," said Mr Pilla, "it will make Windows more resilient and more manageable and the features within it more visible.

Although Mr Pilla could not say how big the finished update will be in megabytes he said that users will be able to get hold of it by several different means.

Those on broadband connections will be able to download it but it will also be possible to order it direct from Microsoft and perhaps pick it up in stores.

Well that worked for SP1 - but will it work for SP2? I guess we'll soon see....

Ugh Hanoi Rocks lyrics...

SP2, I had the beta installed, but it fucked up some of my apps, I dunno whether I'll bother with it when it goes gold...
