Comment:

i just noticed that my windows/LastGood folder size is changed. it used to be over 300mb and now it's only about 8mb. and there's no more LastGood.tmp folder.
i just wonder is there some kind of automatic emptying on that LastGood folder?

This special folder - windows/LastGood - is created when you upgraded to SP1. SP2 does not have anything to do with it.
