>FTP is a File Transfer Program. You must disable all
running programs. Go to: Start/Run type MSCONFIG and
click OK. Click StartUp tab and then disable all running
programs except your Anti-virus program, if Norton it
will start with NAV. Click Apply then OK. Reboot PC.
Go back online and install SP1. After that you can
enable the programs again or leave it alone, your PC will
run a lot faster and smoother. Disabling programs in
MSCONFIG does not delete them, only stops them from
activating at startup. Clicking an icon will activate it
again.
