ok, i dont know what you guys have done when installing xpsp2 but their is nothing wrong with it! i have gone through rc1 and rc2 - sure rc2 wasnt stable but its a beta its not supposed to be! i have installed xpsp2 on all my machines - the full package 272mg and it works fine! no out of focus windows blah blah and any other crap quite frankly if your dumb enough to install sp2 without thinking what you might break then it is your fault!! - ie uninstall any firewall software before installing sp2 its time to stop bitching about sp2 and get it working - its going to save the IT industry time and money by stopping worms and buffer overruns etc. m$ have actually got this one right!
It's great that it works for your one configuration, but there are thousands of other configurations out there. For some, it is not working, even when they read the documentation.
