Later all Bummer... had no problems installing it on 5 systems, except for one situation that had a non-standard VPN configuration. This was resolved by opening up the software firewall, opening the VPN connection, then closing the firewall. A small hassle. -- Jonathan Ganz (j gan z @ $ail no w.c=o=m) http://www.sailnow.com "If there's no wind, row." |
It was an hour to find and correct the data.
I wonder what Gates charges by the hour? Nonetheless... a PIA No Need for it. Erased all my correspondence Erased my address book. Later CM |

Hmm... well, they do advise backing up your data before installing. I believe there's an auto backup of your old system created when the sp is installed. I didn't find any mention of problems on the ms website, but that doesn't mean much sometimes. I would report the problem for sure and/or try and get tech support to help via their website. I've heard that BG makes so much that he could be walking along with a hole in his pocket leaking $100 bills, and it would be more expensive time-wise to stop and pick them up vs. continuing to talk. -- Jonathan Ganz (j gan z @ $ail no w.c=o=m) http://www.sailnow.com "If there's no wind, row." |

Later all CM I was warned by my service provider about SP2 a while back, and I haven't installed it. My warning was specific to the XP operating system, but the warning seemed to expand to include caveats regarding firewall software, as well. I haven't done anything, yet. Sorry to hear about your problems. |

Sorry to hear about your problems. The only warning we got was that there were some changes in behavior for SBC Yahoo DSL. They supplied a patch, but when I applied it, no changes were made. -- Jonathan Ganz (j gan z @ $ail no w.c=o=m) http://www.sailnow.com "If there's no wind, row." |
My only problems were email difficulties.
I'm not going to restore to a point prior. I'll just deal with it as a forced purge of accumulated info. Just thought I should make you aware of possible problems. I detest the MS Security enhancements and believe I was more than adequately covered with existing apps. Don't bother with the SP2 unless you feel it a must. It has done zip to increase my security status. CM |

Service Pack 3 screwed me. I wrote to Bill and told him his stuff stinks.
