Are you saying that your machine has already got SP3 installed? If so
then you DON'T need SP1a or SP2.

Assuming you already have SP3, you now need to install IE8 . Without
IE8 you won't get any updates. Have you tried installing IE8 yet? I
suggest try it first otherwise please re-post your question on:

news://news.aioe.org:119/microsoft.public.windowsxp.general

or simply search for microsoft.public.windowsxp.general in your news portal.

Good luck.

Right, then we're on the same page.

Microsoft recently changed their pages not to let you download ie8 unless you're
running win7 or higher.

Unless somebody has a link to a file that retrieves it from microsoft that they're
just not linking to.

recently = it worked last year but not now.
