Windows XP Service Pack 2 is a great windows update that fixes Internet Explorer security issues. I would recommend this to any Windows XP user. As Leo says, make sure your computer is free from viruses and spyware before installing Service Pack 2. Also, if you are running a firewall while installing Service Pack 2, it would be a good idea to shut it down while installing it. If you have your anti-virus running, you should also maybe disable it. Make sure you are not connected to the internet while installing it.

http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/ http://img23.exs.cx/img23/4984/kmeleon1.png %newwin%http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/ K-Meleon - An http://www.gnu.org/licenses/licenses.html opensource, small (±5.3MB) and (veery) simple browser. Like Mozilla Group browsers, K-Meleon is also based on the Wikipedia:Gecko_layout_engine Gecko layout engine. The Wikipedia:GUI GUI is fairly similar to Firefox but not as powerful and user-friendly. It’s fully customizeble, from skins to special add-on features. However, you’d need to do it yourself, adding in those scripts.
