Service Pack 2 for XP and Autopatcher

The Windows XP SP2 update has been downloaded twice with no problem. Haven't installed it yet, just wanted to see if there is as much problem as predicted. An anonymous emailer has recommended not installing on a cracked version of the software. Well, duh!?!!?! Can't believe it was even tried! Using the wait and see policy here. If there are no flutters of horror over the next week or so I may try on one machine. You can download the network installation version posted on Microsoft's site here.

Autopatcher is busy completing the 2000 and 2003 versions of their great software and haven't posted any news since June 27, 2004. They have been moving. Really like this concept and hope they keep up the good work. Nice to sit down in front of a new installation of XP and be able to to include all the Windows Updates at one time. They are also working on a newer XP version. Good site.

The reasons for updates are to present more new features."
