[AccessD] XP SP2 Applied

it's a .CMD aka bat file, it cycles through your pc's services turning
off everything TCP/IP, A/V, FireWall, and anything else that may be
running in the background.  After you run it your pc would be
disconnected from the network, so you should have a copy of the SP
update either on the local disk or on CD.  Then you can run the SP
update, what I've found is that SP installs have never worked so
smooth.
