The ITDE team has been updating computers running Windows XP to Service Pack 2 over the last few months. There are few noticeable changes to the user. However, one change is the way Windows Updates are handled. We have been setting the operating system to download available update, and notify you that they're ready to install. If you get a small balloon message near the system tray asking if you want to install updates, please do so by clicking on the icon.
Windows XP Service Pack 2 is designed to enhance the security of your computer. The other noticeable change is to Internet Explorer, which will now block pop-up windows and ask for permission before running or installing new files from the web.
More information about SP2 is available at the Microsoft website.
