Service Pack 2 is going to be here this summer. Microsoft is really trying to strenthen up security this time around it looks like and the new firewall appears to be a smart improvement. Here is a link to some of the stuff it will have. It is good reading if you're a dork like me. http://www.arstechnica.com/wankerdesk/0 ... eta-1.html |

So I just installed XP (version 2002) for the first time. I did the Windows Update feature, and installed everything. What was Service Pack #1, and how can I tell if I need it? Just being ignorant. :oops: |

The correct term is geek, Herm :lol: The service packs have a lot of the security enhancements that are in the singular downloads on Win. Update as well as new enhancements. Trust me, you probably need them. We all probably need them. |

I get every single update that the Windows update page offers. Just get them all. There is some 1,257 at this point and it should take days. Just kidding. I don't know how many there are. I think around 45 critical and 25 they want you to get anyway which include DirectX 9.0A and Windows Media Player. Stuff like that. I just get them all until it says there aren't any more to get. |
