techrecoveryTomorrow's going to be a double-whammy: Microsoft Patch Tuesday, and the drop-dead date for those folks who have been blocking XP SP2 from Automatic Updates.
Should be a big couple of days, especially for dial-up users.
My heart goes out to all of you on the front lines. Come home carrying your laptop, or on it. ^_^
For those of you working frontline tech support: Have your senior engineers given you materials to cover the SP2 update, considering it's only been out for...six months or so now? If not, is it still your job to address issues?

Date: 2005-04-12 12:26 am (UTC)Some organizations have been using Registry hacks to block the download of SP2, and that also expires tomorrow.
If your organization uses WUS, SUS, or some other form of patch management (bypassing Automatic Updates entirely), you probably won't notice it.
