I heard it was released in early august and is recently now on the website for windows update. I am kinda cautious cause i dont want to **** up my cpu over it if the issues they have had aren't cleared out. I assume it's gotta be ok if its on the update page. I may wait till i get more feedback on here.
EDIT-Well I may take a bite at it when i get time to install it this week, I already created a system restore point on my cpu just incase things **** up, so I can restore it to tonights date and time, where everything is normal *knock on wood*

If you're running a wireless connection, dont upgrade to SP2. alot of problems with the security features. It makes it secure to the point where you can't communicate with your router anymore. Save time and keep the stress level down on tech support, dont do it.

Actually, if you have a wireless router, you can turn off the firewall anyway, so I don't see why wireless connections should even have issues.

Worked fine for...............
3 weeks and then POW! DSL connection was gone. I figure the auto update created an issue. Did a system restore back to the pre instalation date. Bill Gates & DV, Stupid. I was duped.

only problems i've heard of so far is that it actually slows your system down 7-12% in 85% of the cases monitored, having said that i installed it and it's working flawlessly.

Well i installed it, don't notice too much difference except maybe a tad slower but not much, i only got 256mb ram anyway and need to upgrade regardless. I noticed IE has a popupblocker now, i disabled that cause i have google toolbar. Also noticed a window security center that has the firewall enabled etc, it pops up everytime something is trying to mess with the firewall and asks if i want to unblock certain things, which is cool. So far so good...
