use sp2 ?? u must be nuts..
but i agree w/ using firefox. You should still download the patch even though u use firefox cuz if you open a jpeg from an explorer address bar then it'll most likely open it in IE

i recently tried firefox, but noticed some features not available that are in IE, the most notable was the ability to right click on a file or link and "save target as", do i need a special plugin?
