SP2 didn't work for me, I'm back to SP1 and the critical updates installed. My system is running smooth again. FYI the only thing that really 'bugged' me was the 'spyware' and 'hijackers' that took control of IE. I now use Mozilla so those are now a thing of the past.
BTW the thing that killed SP2 for me is that my system would freeze on bootup. I had to boot in safemode, then from safemode do a warm reboot. (I hate boot errors that give no clue as to what is causing the problem.)
Anyway, nuf said, Cheers!
