I'd download it, but it would probably break loads of things on my computer, seeing as loads of things shouldn't really be there anyway

Old link tbh.
Try an official one

Installed it yesterday, works fine, takes ages to install though!

The security center is annoying, in a nanny type way, particularly as I know best! But I guess all IT professional/hobbists will be in a similar position.

if you have a *COUGH COUGH* version can you use this without windows going crazy?

 

[TdC]

it will detect your dodginess and subtly jinx your computer to make you always lose at games. this can be fixed by getting a proper version.

apart from losing at games more often, what will really happen?

if you play halo then after you install SP2 the game won't work on some PCs, there is a fix on the Halo website to download.

Mmm 270MB download. That'll be 250MB of fixes for problems that I've never had, 15MB of new problems, and 5MB of patching security holes. Doom and gloom as always

This file is for admins and server people (hehe), the regular patch will be a lot smaller when eventually released.

But the inq article I pasted links to the same d/l as technation does.

Plus the inq atually gets updated with content.

Quick, let's ban everything! Including banning things.

Installed the pack earlier.. No problems so far *touches wood*

The inbuilt firewall is a bit annoying as is the whole security centre. But can live with it. Not noticed much else different.

It's nice to know someone else has actually noticed this! You lot all seem to be downloading the wrong service pack

 

[Ch3tan]

No, the smaller file will require net access as it will get the bits you need online. This is simply the whole lot in one big file.
