I, too, made the mistake of downloading & installing SP2.
Like you, it, according to my service provider, said that
SP2 resets my modem settings in the registry. I was told I
had to reinstall my modem software but there is none.
I had to restore to *before* SP2 and after some time, my
connection mysteriously reappeared. I have been searching
for a fix to this. However, after reading this post I
concur that, until I receive notice that THIS problem is
fixed I will continue to rely on my Norton. One of the
*first* things I did was to disable the
firewall...nothing. I was down for 1/2 a business day..
not good! Now I just ignor my update notice. I am not
using *anything* exotic or non-complient. Simply XP-Pro -
with out my IIS so this *really* ticks me off.
