I haven't had any warnings.

Here at work we have fully updated McAfee.

I had updated with the windows update but it caused a lot of problems with my computer system. I was not able to open and view photos and it slow my computer down to a crawl. I removed it and use my other firewall and virus protection and the problems are solved.

Dave, my update caused no file transfer via MSN messenger.honestly I agree if you have a good firewall and antivirus program,service pack 2 is not necessary.

I am glad that I am not the only one who agrees. If it isn't broke don't fix it.
