I reinstalled XP on my computer and then learned that Microsoft no longer has Service Pack 2 available, so I downloaded it from this site:
http://www.soft32.com/download_992....
Does anyone know whether the downloaded file is safe to use, that is, virus free? Is soft32.com a trusted site?

Many thanks for that information! However, I would like to install only SP2 at this time, so I will have to investigate this issue further, that is, the issue of whether I can use the file (SP2) that I downloaded from soft32. I do appreciate your taking the time to share that information. All best wishes.
