Thanks Yval for the tip!
I think I'll wait until Microsoft posts it tomorrow.
I downloaded and installed SP3.
Everything seems to have gone smoothly.
I will say that it is a bit of a visualy ugly update.
Once the SP is installed it needs to restart.
This then goes into a welcome screen style UI (like scandisk) then a bootscreen style UI saying "please wait" and then after you log in you get the horrible "Personalized Settings" for Microsoft Outlook 6 (haven't they finshed supporting that now?) and then you get your desktop followed by a couple of non-descriptive command prompts. Finally my beta version of Live Messenger 9 asked for the installation source
"Once the SP is installed it needs to restart."
DUH, thommck. ANY service pack you install under Windows XP requires a restart in order for several system files that are in use to get updated. It was like that with XP SP1 and XP SP2, so expect the same behavior with XP SP3.
WinXP SP3 should be available either in the afternoon or evening of April 29 on both Windows Update and the MS Download Center.
Slimy, this is a Microsoft link!
XP is personalzing settings for Outlook Express 6 not Outlook OE6 is still current., I don't quite know why you find this part horrible though.
I guess it only works on english windows xp?
Too bad, can't edit my comment.

what about the beta version of MSN? I hate when those things happen. I still have to cancel for the LC_4-exe regarding my MS camera, because it cannot find the executable files.... hope it does not happen
Take Care
