Hey guys, Is this really the final Sp1, or just the Sp1 Gold or RTM?

Hope not, cos i was already downloading when
i saw this post.

Feel free to reply on http://forum.cjb.net/cgi-bin/forum.cgi?forum=win2ktools or if you will goto http://win2ktools.cjb.net

No, this should be Release. They wouldn't post a Beta or Gold Pre-Release there...

I'd like to figure that out as well...
Maybe I'll wait until it's official.
Or until a couple hotfixes are released as well, which should be a day or two after its official release.

I would be REALLY pissed if SP1 disabled zone alarm if I was running it!

I disabled zone alarm about 2-3 days ago because of lockup it was performing on my machine.

ZoneAlarm 2.125 is awesome but buggy.

When the bugs are fixed and the programs eats less system resources, woooowee that program will ROCK!!!!!!!!!!

WTF is ZoneAlarm? and BlackIce, for that matter?

They are firewall programs, Deadcats. I also noticed that after I installed SP1, that I simply could not connect to the Internet or ICQ. I lowered the security setting in Zonealarm from high to medium for the Internet, and then everything worked. I'm sure Zonealarm (and Blackice)will release some kind of patch for this. Looks like M$ has tightened the security on Win2k and it seems to have affected firewall programs. Other than that, SP1 installed great.

ZoneAlarm continues to work well after SP1 installation. I've never had a problem before either.

My bro just installed SP1 and he had to uninstall ZoneAlarm. He tried to reinstall but it still won't let him on the internet.

Yep same here, couldn't connect to the net with Zone Alarm installed and SP1 running. I had to uninstall Z/Alarm and reboot before I could connect. I haven't yet tried to re-install it.
Everything else *seems* fine with SP1 installed.

Just installed Windows 2000 SP1 on my machine - Worked perfectly!

Seducer,

What you're lookin for.

Anyone knows something about a german version of SP1? the US/UK version isnt working for me, no installation possible. man i should have installed the english version ... way better support.

SP 1 installed and 100% ok.

I recommend that u all uninstall ZoneAlarm, permanently.

Well I have to hand it to MS: they did a great job this time. I know people are complaining about the loss of firewall protection but MS did a great job fixing the bugs in Win2k and now EVERYONE can enjoy this great OS.

BTW BlackICE 2.1.22 works just fine with SP1, but ZoneAlarm doesnt. I wonder if you removed your firewall before installing SP1 and then reinstalling your firewall will help matters...

O well I'm happy

Hi all,

Just downloaded SP1 again - From Microsofts new link

I really like this Operating System

Well done Microsoft

hmm well i installed the SP1 and all went fine but after i rebooted system and zonealarm loaded up all is fine. I run zonealarm at medium setting, If i set higher than that I can dial up my isp but once connected I cannot reach any webpages. I dont know why im different but with sp1 installed and zonealarm running all is cool. I can give specs if need be

I also did notice that when i was running WinME final, i could set the internet security to highest in zonealarm and could connect to everything fine. that must mean that winme is a very insecure operating system.
