actually the link passed out was legit and took you to ms itself. No need to download it really as the auto update will get it for you.

There really is not anything new in it that will make it useful to download it from another site, plus, I would feel much safer to get it from the official site, via the updater. Someone pointed out too, that you never know what kind of stuff other sites might put in their files along with the pack. So it is up to you really of you can and want to wait or get it somewhere else. The latest is that the official release has been delayed and I am sure it is for a reason. take care chrissy ----- Original Message ----- From: Renette Bloem To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, April 30, 2008 8:25 PM Subject: RE: Release of SP3 delayed by bug Hi Chrissy Sorry, but what does this imply? Is it safe for us to download and install? Renette
