The Windows XP Service Pack 2 can be found here. Go on, you know you wanna. I am getting it now, and will just dive right in! Just look at all the list of fixes. The main area is the security, which while cutting a lot of people off to begin with, sort of puts things where I would rather see them. Instead of shipping everything turned off (no security) and people just going, "Hey it works!" and then never touching a single thing again. They will use it, find it DOESN'T work and then have to figure out just why it is. And from a lot of the people I have spoken to, this will be the first time any of them where even aware of any type of risk (security or otherwise) to their computers, or person! So it's a good thing right?
UPDATE
Just installed and so far all is well, I will get back if things are less than satisfactory.
UPDATE
Apart from Windows keeping on asking about letting programs access the network occasionally,the start up security center, and some little wireless network icons appearing in networking folders, all is calm and working great. Only thing weird so far is that when the computer boots up, it announces on the start up screen that it is Windows XP, neither Home or Pro.
It's a Service Pack and it's number 2, so I think it could be Service Pack 2?
