XP Service Pack 2 ruined my machine.

[Guest]

My Norton internet Security is constantly being turned off by the XP security
center or Symantec will open but not function properly anymore. Also my
Internet Explorer stoped working, always about.blank never loads anything.
Every computer on my home network that installed XP Service Pack 2 has these
same issues and cannot share on the network.

Add/Remove progs to fix...Ggrrrrrr

First verify there are no viruses or spyware involved.
Follow yellow section on this link:

About Blank may indicate a problem resolved by step 2.

I know how you feel SP-2 ruined my computer too. Like hell could i get my
scanner/ webcam and most of my software/ programs to work after installation
of SP-2. After a month of pure frustration i un-installed it from Add/Remove
Programs. Never Again. Iam happy to say though all of them are working fine
now sine i removed SP-2 from my machine

Good for you.. although if you had asked the right people, you could have
had SP2 and all of your peripheral devices, maybe..
