This is the first I've heard of a new service pack, and it doesn't show up on Windows Update, nor on Microsoft.com from what I can see.

Could it be a fake? :dodgy:

It's going to be released this summer :-/

SP2 is said to have many new features (besides many hotfixes that Micro$oft made XP have), such as Download Manager for IE (which was introduced in Longhorn). I personally want to see the Concurrent Login Session (i.e. User A is connected through Remote Desktop, and User B is a console user and they can use the computer at the same time. Currently only one user can "use" the computer at the same time while others' work/processes are saved in memory).

Well, the currently leaked build is 2055 I think.

Yeah it also going to include a popup blocker although if youwant to use one of those before theni expect it would be better using google rather than the MSN toolbar as i expect that will just send u adverts!
