Ok, let me understand this. I want to download "sevice pack one" or don't download "service pack one?" Where does one find this sevice pack?Political Correctness'.........defined

There is an SP1 for XP?

Just what is this thing that erases the hard drive? I haven't heard of anything like it, and I've been in IT for about 7 years now. -
Does this include XP Pro? I guess its time to update my patches.***WAREMTAE***

Baloney. M$ would get their **** handed to them if they pulled something like that, even if it was a pirated copy of their software.
Excuse me while I go install SP1 for XP

This does not make any sense. What web page? What email? I use XP at the office and have not had any problems.
