Review of XP SP 2 Beta if anyone is interested

Looks like some good improvements to me. They made the firewall much like zonealarm's where you can specify access for specific programs. They also took away the full priviledges that the RPC had which allowed for all the worms several months ago.

Looks pretty good to me. I never got SP1 though.
