[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Windows Service Pack 2

This thing sucks! I don't recommend it to anyone, but it does have a good uninstaller if you want to try it out. The main reason I got rid of it is because it tried to hijack my PC and force feed me security settings I already had. Also it slowed down my surfing speed to a 56k modem! Screw it!

Bah. Use SP2! It's the best thing you've got going. Don't run from the future, or risk endangering the rest of us. Patch yourself.

I've had it on 2 computers for the past week:
No problems to report.

Installed it at home, and I’m now doing the 10 computers at work. You have to configure the firewall, and some things in outlook express. Other wise, good stuff I think.

I have some junk going on with my TCP/IP stack. I can barely surf the web sometimes, and I think I will reinstall Windows (again) tomorrow after work. I may try putting SP2 on again, but I'm going to see if the problem is my hardware first. Thank God I have my own file server to hold my stuff until I get done with the reinstall!

Here is a good read on it and a place to report problems.

Using Windows is dumb. Use linux and be able to enjoy using your computer.
