Gawd bless it...not another post...
NO THEY ARE NOT....
1. only if you had the kill bit enabled...do you? I didn't..I don't
know of anyone who used it ... is it expiring
2. Only if you have autoupdates enabled... kill bit gone...then shut off AU
3. even with the AU enabled, the kill bit gone you STILL have to click
on a EULA
Geeze between Microsoft themselves not clarifying how few people used
this, how few people will be affected by this.. it's insane the amount
of misinformation April 12th has.
Nothing will happen..if you want to stay on a less secure XP sp1... you
have every right to do so.
Me I already upgraded a long time ago.
And no.. Windws 2003 isn't on AU either... if you got it you approved it
on SUS or you WU'd it yourself..
The FUD over this kill bit thing is insane.
Like a fellow mvp said... he thinks he could convince people that it
will be installed even if the computer isn't turned on and he bets that
the newsmedia would buy it.

Microsoft is forcing the upgrade to XP2 by april 12th.
This is going to be a nightmare if all pc's get
updated at the same time...
