Bill, if your reading this, maybe you should test your software BEFORE releasing it?

Release XP, one month later release the SP1 patches to fill the holes your programming monkeys didn?t have time to close before the sales department had slapped it on the shelves.

firefox + thunderbird

^do mozilla do OS's?

Just using another browser doesnt cut it, many of the fixes patches holes in the operativesystem alone that can be exploited if you use IE, Opera, Lynx or whatever.

Re:: Windows update released

anybody here experiencing problems with sp2? I installed it at work on one of the machines and the guy that uses the machine to download bittorrent files said sp2 crippled the download/upload speed to max of 5k???? We have T1 over there, usually it is much faster than 5k :roll: ! anybody have similar problems ???

^ suprise, suprise :roll:

I got fed up with Microsoft so I bought a Powerbook. I am now happy happy happy.8)

^^^ Powerbook's are sexy :LoveYou:

Its been rumored that the new G5 powerbook will be made of Carbon Fiber Graphite. Titanium is sweet, but carbon fiber would probably make me have an accident in my pants. :oops: I might have to sell my car to get one or something.

On SP2, that BitTorrent issue is one that scares me. I will probably never upgrade to SP2 because of that. Everyone seems to be experiencing the same problem. Bastadz.

Re:: Windows update released

...there is a fix for sp2 already - Microsoft at its best again, patching the fix! I'm not sure that this will fix the bittorrent issue I have ...

Well try it out and let us know. 8)

better make a image of your Windows before you apply SP2 ya know just in case if you want to revert it back.

Re:: Windows update released

i have been using service pack 2 since release candidate 1 and never experienced any problems. not with bit torrent, kazaa or soulseek.

works just fine without any negative impact and i like the new firewall way better than zonealarm.

installed sp2 tuesday. only minor issues so far. macafee automatic update doesn't always work for me after sp2 update, but i check their site daily anyway. after completing a scheduled virus scan with mcafee, apps seem to occasionally freeze up which is solved by a reboot. will look for a patch to be released by mcafee or windows. in the meantime will try reinstalling mcafee. i can live with those issues. i love the anti-pop-up feature. no p2p or ftp problems for me, but i'm not using bit torrent.

one drawback i find is sp2 automatically installs version 9.0 of windows media player which is know to contain spyware & report back to microsoft. i think bazooka scanner may have resolved that with a registery edit they provided, but not sure yet...
