Windows XP's Big Security Fix
Our test drive suggests that Service Pack 2 is a keeper--assuming no
incompatibilities.

If you've been longing for a more secure version of Windows, Windows XP
Service Pack 2, due in mid-2004, should fit the bill. A response to the
electronic attacks that crippled Windows PCs worldwide last year, Windows XP
SP2 is a crucial upgrade centered on what Microsoft calls security
technologies.
I tested a beta of XP SP2 and came away impressed: With a simple
installation (I experienced none of the compatibility hassles that some
users encountered with SP1), much-needed security enhancements, and a
friendlier front-end to wireless networking, XP SP2 is shaping up as a
must-have upgrade for all Windows XP users.
