I have zero problems from downloading and installing Service pack 2. Pesonally I think Service pack 2 is great package of software and patches for Windows XP and every user or Windows XP should consider downloading. But you must also take some bugs in an account, cause installing Service pack on version of Windows XP with some ad-aware and viruses in it, you get a ticking time bomb. So I suggest installing fresh copy of Windows XP + Service pack (deactivate SP2 firewall), installing Sygate Personal firewall and your favorite antivirus program. This is essential in my opinion. Also when loading fresh copy of Windows Xp and Service Pack, you should unplug your computer from the Interenet. Just a minor safety thing You can download SP2 from the Internet before.

I actualy haven't installed SP2 yet, but I hear different things about it. Some say it doesn't work, and has actualy messed up their systems, while others say it works perfectly.

I follow one simple "rule": If it works, don't mess with it!

I do plan, however, to try out SP2, just as soon... blah... I'm so lazy, i can't get myself to install it, and configure it
