Seems like a nice update.... I'd love to get rid of all of these Hotfixes in the "Add/remove Programs" list... So messy.
BTW, do new Windows XP CDs include SP1? And will it be the case with SP2?
Now for some replies...

I can't install SP1 because the guy who built my computer installed an *ahem* special copy of Windows ![:dodgy:](images/smilies/dodgy.gif)

Don't tell me, your Windows XP activation code starts with "FCKGW"?
![:lol:](images/smilies/rofl.gif)
The "GW" in that code stands for "Gates, William", and I think you can guess what the first three letters stand for.

Not that I would know anything about it. *whistles innocently*

There's no way on Earth you won't be able to disable the XP firewall and/or use a different firewall. As for pop-up blockers, they weren't popular at all when Windows XP was released. What annoys me is that they include such small and browser-specific features in a huge OS update, instead of releasing IE 6.1 or something. *sigh,* Microsoft's good old economic tactics...
