Is there any security enhancements in Service Pack 3?  Does anyone have any articles that would describe these security 
enhancements?  We have been testing also.

I've been doing a test deployment to our lab computers this summer. So
far it has worked without incident.

      What's the consensus on SP3?  Are you still testing, deploying
it on new systems only,  holding off on wide deployment or have
approved it in your WSUS and most of your systems are running it?
