Some software developers may find their applications no longer work on
machines using Microsoft Service Pack 2 for Windows XP, which will be
released later this year. Microsoft has made something of a trade-off with
the update, focusing on security improvements at the expense of backward
compatibility. The company has called on all software developers to test
their code against the beta version of Service Pack 2, or face the
possibility that the update will break their handiwork.
