A Neowin Exclusive, I am led to believe
Well, after many posts related to SP1 lately it has finally been released to beta testers and is reported to include IE6 SP1 beta build 2800.1050.
You can check out the Readme here.
SP1 contains updates for the following areas of Windows XP functionality:
As deadzombie, a recent addition to the Neowin team noted, the readme as per usual is hardly the most informative... but hey, what did you expect?
• Support for files greater than 4GB (previously support was for files up to 2GB)
• View menu items (and toolbar support) to zoom in/out by increasing/decreasing font size
• Sort support for up to 4 sort keys, much quicker in most cases
