Downloaded SP2 sunday. Since then several problems. 1. Word ((2003) now
ceases responding about ten seconds after loading a document. Cannot do any
wordprocessing except on notepad. 2. System is slower generally 3. I get
this vbs.searchsearch.www window open by itself when i'm not on the internet
which blocks the screen saver from working 4. I can't access email from
Winows messenger. The window does not indicate emails any more. Anybody as
unimpresswith SP2 as I am ?
