Windows XP SP1/1a has been out for ages and the new SP2 is pretty much
available (i've got it installed).

Cheers for the responses.

I had active updates running and thought I was up to date - obviously it
doesn't go off and get whole service packs. I also assumed that as I had
very few updates outstanding (1 actually) it would be a quick job.

It took 2 hours to install (30 mins of this being downloading). All for a
little USB cable driver.....

Thanks all
