I've installed SP2 on about a half dozen PCs now mostly home PCs off our
network. Everything has gone smoothly so far including configuring
wireless Citrix access from home using PN 7.1.
I recently installed SP2 on my PC (first PC on our domain) and I do have
one odd issue. May not be related to SP2 but it started around the same
time. When I open a new email in Outlook 2002 SP3 then they click on the
tasks a the bottom of the screen nothing happens. My email says locked
in front of other applications. I then have to minimize the window to
get to the other windows open.
Over all SP2 has been good so far, and the pop blocker in IE is a great
everyday used feature.

I have put SP2 on about 10 machines. A couple here at work and the
rest for friends and family. So far so good with all of them.
