SP 2 Security Center
Hi there....
after removing SP2 from my computer I noticed the Security Center still existed. I had upgraded from SP1. I noticed several things were still left running that were part of SP2. System restore doesn't go back far enough to do any good and I used add remove programs to remove SP2. I also checked the C: windows/uninstallsp2 folder as Microsoft suggested, and it was also removed when i uninstalled SP2. So, I don't know where else to look to get rid of the rest of the programs. Thanks for helping me remove the programs associated with SP2. |

SP 2 Security Center
TY Carey, but my OS is stable and I'd rather not go that route.

If your OS is stable, don't worry about the Security Center.
