[FlishFun Veteran]

Pretty much. When it's run it says it's just for XPSP1, but it will work with SP2. Just make sure you install things that work (for example, the ISO Burner is only for SP1 until he updates it).

[+theblazingangel MVC]

so arent you gonna include autostreamer?

[FlishFun Veteran]

Yep. Check the changelog I just posted, it's listed. :happy:

Hey how about adding codecs to the pack? and about that msn messenger plus I herd it has spy ware on it?

[soldier1st]

hmm the codecs idea sounds ok since it's free but i dunno if flish wants to add it or wait till next ap

[SilentKnight]

msn messenger plus does contain spyware. It installs mysearchbar. Annoying as hell to remove once installed but completely doable. I still use msn plus just make sure to monitor my registry and startup files as installing so it can be removed.

[new_duxie]

Hi Flish, can't wait for the APXP SP2 compatible version to be released.

on a sidenote, i found a copy of the first post-sp2 hotfix on bink.nu, the below links is to the knowledge base article. and finally to the actual hotfix, hope this helps

Wish I knew what I had done with it, man. I think it was deleted accidentally when I swapped PCs. :laugh:

[WhatWarning]

Flish you can upload it to my server, I will PM you the required information. Also, I have about 1GB of Storage available and 40GB of transfer a month. So I guess use your judgement on what is the appropriate file to use.

I shouldn't have any problems hosting the full version of the Post SP2 AutoPatcher. . . hint hint :D LOL

[LittlBUGer]

I may be able to host it as well. I have around 800MB free and 400GB (yes, 400) a month transfer (though 1/3 to 1/2 of that is needed for http://windowsubcd.com ). Let me know if you need anyone else. :)

[mrbass]

Just have one mirror the other mirrors can yank it from. When I get 700MB iso images it takes less than 3 mins when doing it from server to server usually. Let us know a username/password then give us half a day or a day to get it. If there is a mirror to yank it from can you pm me the info please Flishfun?

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...&DisplayLang=en

oh, and excuse my ignorance.net, but why has MS released .Net Framework 1.0 sp3 and 1.1 Sp1 concurrently, do they do separate things, do we need both???
