Is there some reason why you have not installed SP3? Any other updates missing?

These updates are designed, among other things, to correct security issues that effect your XP operating system. The most important and comprehensive of these is SP3. I am aware that if you look around the web there are those that warn against it. That is nonsensical and foolhardy.

You may not like Microsoft for other reasons but they are the best equipped to deal with issues that effect their own software. I would suggest you update immediately.
