So far I've not experienced any problems, yet. A lot of us freeware junkies
use XP so I wonder if anyone has experienced issues with popular freeware
and SP 2 (for those who may have already installed SP 2) ? Might be a good
idea to start logging freeware that behaves differently or breaks after
installing XP SP 2 for those who've not yet installed SP 2 or have yet to
even upgrade to XP.

No doubt the software manufacturer in many cases will say you need the
latest version, especially if you have to pay for it.
