I just installed SP2 RC2 on a P4 test box with XPHOME.
This appears to be a perfect upgrade for a person with a
Compaq Presario, with AOL, to scan the porn sites & chat
rooms, asking how to get their task bar from the right side
of the screen.
This update seems to do nothing for a person who
knows how to lock down their box, except to use excessive
resources. I am going to scan the above newsgroups and
see if this can be pared down to be usable.
