Make sure you clean your machine before installing SP2. First run an
up-to-date anti-virus.

For god's sake give it a rest. if you haven't got anything constructive to
say which will help the original poster solve his problem the just don't
bother.
All you ever do is berate, belittle, contradict and generally be as
obnoxious as you possible can. Go out and get a life!
What difference doe it make if the OP doesn't post correctly, so long as we
can read what he has to say then i have no problem with it.
 
I totally agree, I think Miss Prick finds it more entertaining to pick at
people rather than help them.
Regardless, with the internet issue, are you getting a "limited or no
connectivity" message after you install sp2? Seems to be a common issue after
the installation, ensure you have no spyware prior to install as someone else
had mentioned. Also, see KB 892896 if that is the message you receive. Good
luck!
