Kelvin, I have grown sick of both Microsoft and IE. I haven't downloaded SP2 yet. I have enough bugs floating around in my XP system from all of the Microsoft updates and their conflicts with my drivers. I am convince that XP doesn't always update well on a Raid 0 configuration like I am currently running. I am planning to reformat one day soon and switch to a Raid 1 configuration and try loading just my XP pro with SP1 and then update with SP2. Perhaps I will finally get a clean install??

BTW, I think I am saying good bye to Norton as well in favor of all the free security downloads.

Following the suggestions I have seen several times on this thread, I have started using Foxfire for activities where IE likes to crash. You might find it useful as well.

Kelvin, glad it's fixed for now. SP2 is mainly for forcing users into safe practices, so if you have all the security software working, SP2 won't add much to it - I think.
