I keep getting an error message that says I should
download and install Windows XP sp2 on my computer. I
have windows 2000 Professional. Am I supposed to use a
service pack for XP ?
 
You can't run XP SP2 on your Windows 2000 Pro system. Currently the
latest SP for your system is SP4.

How are you being notified of the update? Is it a balloon popping up on
the bottom right of your screen near the clock?

Sounds like a tool that is trying to trick you into downloading XP SP2, but
it will really download a malicious program.

I would recommend using a third party spyware removal tool (spybot,
adaware, etc) and updating the virus definitions on your system and doing a
full scan.
