XtremeMaC Posted October 19, 2003 Posted October 19, 2003 (edited) Hi there I'm about the dl the huge file for SP2 1224 betabefore doing that I just wanted to askdoes anyone know what it comes with(patches and updates to what?)? Since Jono's right and I had doubts about the legal process of it I'm removing the link. Edited October 20, 2003 by XtremeMaC
Jono Posted October 20, 2003 Posted October 20, 2003 could be real but i would NOT Recommend using a beta service pack because many hotixes will refuse to install and your left very vunerable
XtremeMaC Posted October 20, 2003 Author Posted October 20, 2003 its probably real I had beta tested xp there were many leaked version on the net by then. I think when they're doing the beta's they include whatever patched hotfixed they included in the past and more. So i don't really think i would be vulnerable that much, but then again I don't know what really is in the sp2
RyanVM Posted October 20, 2003 Posted October 20, 2003 File versions from the newer hotfixes are actually higher than the latest leaked service packs. Remember, these vulnerabilities need to be patched as the service goes through beta testing too.
Jono Posted October 20, 2003 Posted October 20, 2003 Please Remove the link as well i forgot to mention earlier this could be classed as warez which is not accepted and goes against the rules, i would remove it before a moderator sees it because then you will recieve a warning.Also this is a major problem of pre release software ie Beta releases and leaked versions as they are not offical there is no support for them and many loopholes / security updates are left wide open leaving very vunderable systems.you may not realise how vunderable you are by running the software but what happens when you need that vital windows update it wont install,i use beta software myself on a dual boot config but it is not my primary os and never goes online so the risk of attack is minimised to an extent that i am comfortable with.anyways i suppose this is down to personal preference
DaveXP Posted October 20, 2003 Posted October 20, 2003 i can tell you that the above link it Windows XP Service Pack 2 and please remove the link it is classed as waraz
DaveXP Posted October 20, 2003 Posted October 20, 2003 i think you posted in the wrong thread?yes it will work it's Windows XP SP2
