Thanks for your response; but, I wanted to know the
difference between sp3 and sp3a. I have already
researched the service packs and the applicable changes
that the service pack does. I want to know why MS
created a distinction between "sp3" and "sp3a." Really I
just want to know the difference between the two. I
already know that there are no file changes. So why
the "alpha" version?
