you haven't tried hard enough...unplug the sucker..if that fails, then you either have a magical computer you bought from the same person that Jack bought his beans from or you are trolling...

and therein most likely is the root of your problem....disabling SP2 is just plain stupid and I'm surprised your machine runs at all as new updates are not supposed to be supported unless SP2 is present...

you've accused me of thinking you are stupid, for what I have no clue as I'm the one who pointed out you probably don't have the wherewithal to go into system files and delete updates in that fashion (i.e. I stood up for you)....

at this point I do think you are stupid...or senile...or something even more nefarious....

***please note I made this post before I was aware of The Shadow's last post...it was hung up by the forum spambuster and I just approved it for view***

my sentiments of this thread/poster remain the same
