If your computer is still working you don't have SP2.

Hi

Even if you have configured Automatic Updates to automatically
download and install all critical updates, SP2 will not install on
your computer before you have accepted the SP2 EULA and clicked
the Next button on a couple of dialogs (that e.g. states that you
should back up your system before continuing).
