Not sure if its on Windows Update yet...

Download & Install at your OWN RISK I've heard stories about 4-in-10 computers fail to boot once this is installed, even tho its the Final version for public release

I'm gona risk it later once I've backed everything up...

p2p programs will suffer as by default SP2 now restricts 10 connections per second to any 1 port, instead of the current unlimited.

also programs such as DivX won't work due to new concepts which prevent code being buffered & called from memory, so this will also effect quite a few old-stylee games.

I thought about this for a minute, then looked at the list of upgrades and realised I wasn't going to use any!

I installed it anyway, it works fine.

It's on Windows Update on 25th August, IIRC.
