    It's not that old, a little more than a month. But 336 mb. My god that's half the size of a full install cd. wtf.

    Thanks for the link though. I haven't bothered with updates for about a year... got sick of patches crashing my shit. So I've been avoiding that mess as long as it still runs smoothly behind a decent firewall. If it ain't broke don't fix it. I might not even bother with sp3, but I might as well have it handy for a full/clean reinstall.

    I'm still not touching vista for another year or so.

    The MS forum feedback on sp3 is... not encouraging. Sure there are thousands of hardware configs and all kinds of random crazy shit that xp has to somehow deal with, so I'm not surprised to see a lot of problems. But I really really fucking hate beta testing on the user level. Especially when it's my machine and I'm not in the mood for crashes and troubleshooting and slogging through my registry. I think I'll wait for a full release.

    Its a bunch of kiddies who don't know what there doing, but anyways its up to you.

    Also the reason for the file size is its all the hotfixes since SP2.

    Thanks Cam. (Not entirely sure if that was supposed to be an insult or not. Or who that was directed at. :ermm: )
