After long delays, Microsoft finally released Windows XP Service Pack 2 to the public.

I've been running this release on my computers since the final version was made available to the beta testers on the 7th of August, and must say that I haven't run into any problems. So what's this Service Pack 2 all about?

First of all, it is a big step in the right direction as far as security is concerned. Many home users aren't paying any attention to the security of their systems, and as a result, there are way too many insecure systems out there ready to be "taken over" when the next virus or worm comes along.

Improvements to Windows security in Service Pack 2.
