Hi boys,
Yea, I'm not going for SP2 at this time either. I am running XP Pro Slipstreamed SP1 plus other security updates applied. I think I'm as updated as I need to be for right now!!
As an extra security messure I use that very fabulous tool called Shields Up! and my system at home is considered STEALTH, so no open ports. I'm not sure about this computer at work, I should do that......
OK, the machine here at work is Stealth too except there are 2 ports (1027 & 1028) that are closed but safe. So that's good too. I'm running Win2000 Pro here at work so the SP 2 wouldn't apply in any case!
If you are interested in running Shields UP! here is the address: http://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?rh1dkyd2
Scroll down a bit and choose the "All Service Ports" button. If you are running a Firewall then allow for the site's Incoming requests when your Firewall allerts you.
