    MS just released a list of fixes that SP3 addresses here:

    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/946480/

    There seem to be at least 100 items in this list and I do not see anything that I think remotely applies to anything I do on my computer. Does anyone see anything significant that would tempt you to install SP3? I would be interested in knowing. Thanks in advance.
    MS does not seem to have offered the negative fixes that SP3 can produce. I think they should offer that list of unfixes as well!

    In theory, it only takes one week long - pull your hair out week - wish you had installed SP3 or you wouldn't have had the bad week to begin with - to get me to install SP3.

    Just like SP1 and SP2, "some" people had big issues when they installed them. But, the majority of people didn't.

    If you reinstall XP, doing SP3 would be the way to go....There are about 90 updates to a SP2 machine that are rolled up into SP3.
