Do I need it?

[Sacred Phoenix]

I was just wondering if service pack 2 for XP is worth downloading. Do I need it or not. The thing is i am low on disk space and this is gonna take most of what little i have left. So do I need it?

Thanks

No it just makes mroe problems or atleast did for me and others I know.

Just make sure you have SP1 with all the critical updates.

Ok, i won't download it then, one quick question, how do you get the automatic download icon in the task bar to go away? thank so much guys.

Control Panel > Automatic Updates > Turn off Automatic Updates

If you're low on disk space, then you most certainly do not want it, as it eats another 1 GB off your Windows drive.

Yeah but you can eliminate system files, various unnecessary 1 gig files, and all that.

And where does the gig come from? MY windows directory is only 1.68 gigs. It would be smaller if I knew more things to delete :D

Actually, wtf? Mine's over 2 GB *_* Although 500 MB of that is just fonts. I guess I'd like to know a few things to delete too
