Hi,

I have been told that WIndows XP Server Pack 1 & 1a has ended on the 10th October 2006, so I did a google and came up with a link to Microsoft about it, link: http://support.microsoft.com/gp/lifean19

Will I have any problems after I have upgraded to SP2, if so what ?

Do I need to do anything, other then upgrade like turn off the windows firewall ?

When my mate upgraded he found some norton stuff on it, he said it was not there before, but does SP2 install anything to do with Norton or did he really have it before ?

Regards,
Garry
