Just installed SP2...
 

Nothing broke (as far as I know), TOUCH WOOD! :glugglug

And, though it may be my imagination, or a coincidence....

But Mozilla seems to be rendering pages faster :)

Nice... I installed sp2 with no probs as well.. some people however are having major probs

convince me more...
i need to know if there are still having issues with the updates.

Yes, I'd heard many people have had problems.

So I spent several hours burning all my data to CDs. I was kinda
happy to discover that this was time wasted :winkwink:

I believe some people are still having problems, occasionally major ones. I read a story the other day that suggested many of the problems are a result of conflicts caused by spyware. So BEFORE you upgrade, be sure to cleanse your HD of spyware as thoroughly as possible (MS also makes this recommendation). :2 cents:

im leaving no room for error, im currently using Ad-aware and Spybot (Seach and Destroy). any other spyware remover you can recommend?

I use those two apps to detect installed spyware :)

Plus SpywareBlaster which helps prevent spyware
from being installed in the first place.

No problems yet either..liking it so far

Everyday and I mean "EVERYDAY", I run Adaware, HJT, SpySweeper, SpySweeper and 1 of the free online virus scanners. Good Luck!

lots of thanks... in a few days, i will mostly likely get some headstart for the Sp2 :thumbsup

bookmarked :thumbsup

sp2 is pretty swish.

good links :thumbsup

Just out of curiosity...

Everyone who has had their WinXP Pro box shut down because of SP2, did you use the key that starts out as FCKGW-?

Incidentally, isn't it funny that the most widespread key for WinXP Pro Corp looks like it should say "Fuck GW"?

All PCs in the office and all laptops now installed too with zero problems of any kind. :2 cents:

We run XP Pro on everything. Zero problems of any kind. :2 cents:

haha i just uninstalled it :)

you encountered any problem? bring it all here bro....

Why?

Thanks!:thumbsup
