I don't buy my gas at the same gas station. I don't my groceries at the same store why should I believe that an operating system is sufficient to secure itself? SP2 is not going to do anymore to secure a system that you can't do already through other products that are currently available. I will always protect my network with a firewall both hardware and software and a anti-virus program that can have updates and guess what? Microsoft's SP2 can't even detect these programs are running. Don't ever assume that buying everything through one supplier is the best course of action. A Microsoft operating system running through a linksys router with a Sygate software firewall and a Symantec Anti-virus running real-time detection has given me a warm fuzzy feeling of protection and allows me to do all my task that my computer system is suppose to do without fear of being intruded or invaded. |

That's not Microsoft's fault. You need to bug the people who make those programs, so that they can update them to be compatible with SP2's Secuity Center. |

Edgewood, MD | I would rather not worry about the detection of SP2. For the programs to be compatibly, they may have to rewrite the code that could lead to vonablilties. Let MS XP operate and the other programs guard my system against MS and the bad guys. |
