Windows XP Service Pack 3

A customer asked me the other day about SP3. I think it was in my May 29 blog post that I recommenced against installing it and showed you how to block it from being downloaded.

My position on this has not changed. I have not installed it on any of my machines, and have only installed it on one customer's machine. I am giving it a little more time, and will probably install it on my machines before the end of the year.

There are no new bells and whistles that come with it, and it supposedly contains little more than all of the individual updates you and I have been installing along the way. Given that, and knowing that there were several problems caused by installing it, I will give it some more time.
