I'm currently living in fear of SP2, mainly due to my innate fear of anything "new" from up there at the "Lazy M Ranch".

Its installed on about half of my IT staff machines, with little apparent harm, and very soon now it will start appearing on user machines, because we told them [sigh] to pretty much always accept updates. I have no idea what sort of monster I've created here.

If I'm still posting tomorrow, then it was no big deal. If it takes me a few days to reply, then it means that I'm now a Wal-Mart greeter and my new screen name will be different. :-)

You ae wise, Master Sea-man ... as well we all know, "new" = "bad."

It won't start corrupting data until it's well-entrenched in our lives.

Hey ... paranoid keeps you alive!

I just downloaded a whole raft of documents on XPSP2 from MS and forwarded them to my email box at work ... had to, 'cause our IT department thinks certain MS sites are "chat" and have blocked our access to them.

Some days, I wonder if they really want me to do this job!

I'm over time ... goodnight, all!
