Service Pack 2 Downloads on April 12 Author: IT-Observer Staff Wednesday, 06 April 2005, 17:47 GMT Starting next Tuesday, April 12, computers running Microsoft Windows XP without Service Packet 2 installed will not be able to block the upgrade. An announcement that appeared on Microsoft’s web site provides an explanation for the upcoming upgrade: “Because of these significant improvements, Microsoft views Windows XP SP2 as an essential security update and is therefore distributing it as a "critical update" via Windows Update (WU) and the Automatic Updates (AU) delivery mechanism in Windows. Microsoft strongly urges customers with Windows XP and Windows XP Service Pack 1-based systems to update to Windows XP SP2 as soon as possible.” So ready or not, on Tuesday, “un-patched” boxes will have SP2 downloaded to their networks and computers, but, what happens after that? The upgrade day, as the second Tuesday of the month, is the same day that Microsoft is scheduling to release its monthly patches. |
