There is a lot of stuff on the Internet about SP2... Most of which is rubbish I may add. I have cleaned off a lot of the Rubbish about old builds from the front page, I have also added a few more external resources which review SP2 RC2. Paul Thurrott - Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) FAQ (Updated for RC2) Paul Thurrott - Windows XP SP2 with Advanced Security Technologies Review Thanks for everyone's help in writing it.

MeyendTripp Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 I have just recently downloaded the SP2 RC2. Everything is running fine, except when I try to download from the Internet..ie WinCustomize.

Chrysalis Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 seems mcafee virus pro 7.03 is ok but home v7 isn't, as it worked in RC1 could a beta tester report this or is there a public way to report?

This issue is known by microsoft already, do you mean the software doesnt work at all? If you mean in terms with the security centre it will be fixed in the final, mind u im sure this would be fixed too. To report an issue do the following: 1) Go here http://windowsbeta.microsoft.com 2) Sign in using your .NET Passport 3) Click on Issue Reporting>Submit an Issue 4) Then you will see this link http://windowsbeta.microsoft.com/IssueRepo...ReportForm.aspx. 5) You can submit a form via that or download the MBC Microsoft Beta Client to submit issues to microsoft to report issues as soon as u find them:) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/75970-the-sp2-thread-reloaded/page/36/#findComment-2337920 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrysalis Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 thanks I wll do so. Yes home v7 fails to run once the virus defenitions are updated it just crashes, even on a reboot it will just crash right at startup, so its impossible to do any scanning. The app worked in RC1. Pro seems ok however, but I don't know if this is because it is pro or it is a higher sub version.

MeyendTripp Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 I'm sorry for not being clearer...Here is a pic of the download manager I receive when trying to download from a website. Usually I would get WinZip after hitting a download link. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling of WinZip to no avail to get rid of (SP2 File download). ...After selecting OPEN it closes itself out without downloading. ...SAVE shuts down IE 6.0 all together.

Chrysalis Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 well I have winzip and even in SP1 it has never automatically opened a zip file I have clicked on a webpage, so I am sure there is something you need to set to make it do so.
