Windows XP Service Pack 3 simply rolls all the fixes and upgrades into a single convenient package, though there are a few brand-new additions with SP3. Whether the new additions catch your eye or not, security upgrades make applying the service pack a good idea—but make sure you know about possible compatibility issues.
My wish list includes new functionality such as:-
the ability, in Windows Explorer, to switch between folder and favorites views and to navigate folders from the locations field
along with better memory management—especially for multimedia production programs—and stronger built-in security.
A few overhauls wouldn't be out of place, either, particularly of utilities such as Backup and Paint and all those other things that have been lying around largely unchanged since the original XP and even before. Actually, this would be a good time to introduce a few of Vista's user interface upgrades, if only to make XP users look longingly towards the newer OS.
Well here r some drawbacks of Xp sp3!!!
Alas, that's not what SP3 delivers. The new stuff isn't particularly noteworthy, and the rest has been available already through Windows Update. SP3 functions primarily as a collection of past fixes with a few security additions. SP3 is most certainly essential for anyone who hasn't applied SP2, and for those who haven't kept up with the Windows Update downloads, but if you've been on top of things, SP3 won't do much for you.

The most obvious new additions are the latest versions of Microsoft's browser and media player—Media Player 11 and Internet Explorer 7.0—both of which have been download able for quite some time. You'll also notice (if you look hard enough) new and clearer descriptions of some settings in the Control Panel Security Options applet, changes designed to help users avoid configuring system security incorrectly. The only other significant user-interface modification lies with the taskbar, which no longer has the Address Bar—a change Microsoft describes as a regulatory request.http://www.zeropaid.com/bbs/images/icons/icon10.gif

useless. and Opteron is an AMD product. Maybe VIA/C3 would have been a better 3rd choice. Or IBM/PPC.

Removed the serial. Not sure what the hell the thread is supposed to be about though... I think it's crack spam.... but the poll could actually incite discussion... maybe.

I agree, I read the post twice and I still don't get it. If this is spam, then I think he did it wrong.
I'm not sure what any of you other than the OP are talking about.

Simple cryptology. Take the first letter {1} and then the 26th letter later {27} and proceed to count up/down through the message until you use every letter once. The original poster threw a kink in by only coding his first paragraph in this manner. Both mine and Mels' replies were readable in their entirety.
The original poster said:
While the level of discussion on this site seems high, there seems to be a level of stagnation in the recent postings. While this was once a vibrant community of intellectuals and open discourse it appears to have devolved into little more than potty jokes.
I replied:
Really that assertion is without merit. One could take a cross section sampling of any site and see a visible increase and reduction of the quality of posts over a given time. If you feel the level of discourse is slipping start vibrant threads rather than complaining.
I won't decode mels' reply here, as I think it is systematic of the issue that the OP was describing. If you want to see what he said, I gave you the key above. It begins: P-E...
