Microsoft has released a list of 50 programs and games that will not work properly with Windos XP SP2. Make sure to check out the list before upgrading, you could save a lot of time.
The list, published in a knowledge base article on Microsoft's Web site, includes developer and backup tools, antivirus software and a file transfer protocol client. The applications may not work correctly after installing SP2 because the update installs and enables a new program called Windows Firewall. "After you install Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2), some programs may seem not to work. By default, Windows Firewall is enabled and blocks unsolicited connections to your computer," Microsoft said in the recently published knowledge base article, available online. The firewall in Windows previously wasn't enabled by default.
