Hi there,
I just got the link directly to download SP2.
Ons thing I'm baatling with, is how to get to the link myself. I have tried
almost everything from the Update page.
I will appreciate your time and patience.
Regards,
Deon

Deon;
I am not sure I understand.
First you say you got the link, then you ask how to get to the link.
Exactly what do you need?
See Step 1 on this link for options to order SP-2 on CD or download so you
can burn to CD:

Hi
If you have the following link to download the 266 MB SP2 file, click on it,
save it to wherever you like on your hard disk/partition, then double click
the file to install SP2:

That is quite helpful. Would someone be able to give the md5sum of this
file as well? Just to verify my download went well.
Thanks,
Sam.

Hi
Verification isn't needed. However you can use CRC if necessary.

hmm .. I am not sure I understand. Why is verification not needed?
