:) Hi,
Hope I can get an answer :jig: ...I have SP2 installed on my Windows XPHome...everything seems fine, maybe things are a bit slower since I installed SP2, but otherwise, I have not run into any problems (yet, or that I know of!!!).
I did read that the SP2 Firewall conflicts :hammer: with some other firewalls...and since I have the McAfee Firewall (and I am happy with it), I disabled the SP2 firewall....my question is: did I do the right thing??

I test my puter at Shield'sUp web site often...it is 100% stealth, so I know everything is secure.

I would appreciate any reply on this...and thank you very much :thanks:

you did the right thing... you won't want both McAfee and The XP firewall running at the same time.

since you come across as 100% stealth, you're good to go :)
