Just went to Critical Updates / Custom and see notice for download of SP3.
My husband and I are not at all familiar with computers, etc., and wonder if
it is required that SP3 be downloaded?
If "Yes," is it as simple as just clicking on the download and just let it
install?
Or are there many, many things we must be aware of before downloading, etc.
This has us quite confused and anxious. We just have our notebook and desktop
with WinXPsp2, which we use at home.
