Default Download SP2

Is there somewhere I can download SP2 manually? Each time I
try to DL is using windows update, it fails to actually download. I
have looked on various pages on MS's site but the only ways I've
seen as to how to get SP2 is either by CD (4-6wks) or by windows
update. I was able to download SP1 manually so I'm sure there's
got to be a way to get SP2 manually as well.

Any suggestions?

thnx,
Christoph

Windows and Microsoft Update adds another layer of code that can fail
during the patching process that is really not necessary. Now with WGA,
that adds an additional layer of useless and unnecessary code on top of
that.
