Collecting biz opinions about windows XP service pack 3

[ladydesigner]

I hate XP SP3 for the simple reason that it took away my bottom taskbar address bar. I didn't have a choice in downloading it... my pc just downloaded it on its own about 2 weeks ago. I suppose there's some setting somewhere that I could change so my computer doesn't do auto updates but hell if I can figure it out.

right click on the start button,

select the taskbar tab

make sure "Keep the taskbar on top of other windows" is checked

then make sure you drag it one row up from the bottom.
