Just wondering if anyone else has installed the Public beta of XPsp2 and what they think of it microsoft released it to the public for testing a few days ago i have it installed and its working with minimal problems the odd glitch but nothing major includes extra security and a firewall little similar to zone alarm.

I have enough problems with their post beta applications lol i think i'll just wait.

lol, i agree with err0r, i hate beta versions tongue.gif

Good idea cause im starting to have problems with it now lol alot of stuff isnt compatible with sp2 yet and im finding out now what isnt lol ah well you live and learn lol

I was chosen as a beta tester and I HATED it. It was awful. Also tested with ClearMSN, RigorMortis, and Vincula passport updates, they all freeze. Several applications fail to work as well.

 

Though good things are:

 

Popup blocker in IE

More firewall options

 

and that is about it...

 

Though Windows Update V5 is excellent...

Chatroom Drama at its finest. All I did was ask a simple question!

I remember when i beta tested winxp i knew it was crap such as why i am using windows 2000 professional and windows 98se....beta testing sucks...sorry that's my opinion..because half the time microsoft doesn't listen to you anyways so whats the point?
