The installation of SP2 already did that, automatically. Any security
updates (hotfixes) on your system after the service pack installation
are post-SP2 patches, and should not be uninstalled.
Also, please unstick your CapsLock key. Posting in all caps, as you
have done, is the Usenet equivalent of shouting, and is considered very
rude by a large number of people. More importantly, posting in all caps
makes the post harder to read, further reducing your chances of getting
help; a great many people won't even try to read such a message. If you
really want help, simply comply with the dictates of common courtesy and
the conventions of the milieu.

Will you "please" stop posting with all capital letters. It is hard for
these old eyes to read and I tend to bypass posts like these.
Yeah, I know - I'm an old fart. But, many others have the same problem. You
will be limiting the amount of assistance you receive if you continue to do
this.

Patty,
SP2 would have removed (replaced) any of the updates you no longer needed
when you installed it. SP2 is, however, quite old - and since its release
over 60 new patches have been released. These are likely what you are
seeing in your add/remove programs control panel. These should not be
removed.
Also - if you would not mind in the future using normal capitalization
methods - it might make the reading of your posts easier and you might get
more responses
