Successfully installed sp2. The icon is supposed to appear
in the taskbar, but it's not there. I tried to put it in
the taskbar, per help instructions, but won't appear.
What shoul I do? Thank you for your time and help
 
The "Security Center" icon is not designed to appear in the
notification area of the Taskbar. A "Windows Security Alerts"
icon will appear in the notification only if Windows XP detects
a security issue related to Windows Updates, Firewall or
your antivirus program. If you have Automatic Updates enabled,
a firewall properly installed and functioning, and your antivirus
program virus definitions are up-to-date, then that icon will not
appear.

Additionally, if you manually made changes in the way the Security
Center alerts you, the icon will not appear. This is by design.

.is really not necessary theicon. downloading sp2 doesnt

want to review just look at the history of downloads.
