Hello,

I was just wondering if anyone could tell me how long Microsoft is likely to
be issuing critical patches for XP SP1? I know SP2 is the eventual cure, but
it's not yet been approved by some (many?) IT teams, so it'd be good to know
how long corporates have to get themseves organised...

Cheers,
Mike
