i downloaded it but when i click it nothing happens...and its only 250 kb's so it couldnt be the right file anyway.

256 KB is just the setup file, after that it downloads every thing elese. Anyone know the relase date for SP2?

[tesco]

but the setup file never launches to download more files like sp1 does. I read in an article last week that it should be released by the third quarter of 2004.

what was the warez site?

I extracted the files from the exe and i found these files in it:
-xupdate1.cat
-xupdate1.dat
-xupdate1.inf
-advpack.dll
-w95inf16.dll
-w9532.dll

those w95 files makes me think that this is actually some udate for windows 95 but thanks anyway.
