Just uninstalled XP SP2
The story:
I've a PC at home with Windows XP Professional SP1, always patched, connected to Internet via an ADSL Line. All is worked good until the installation of XP SP2. 3 days ago 've installed the XP SP2 from Windows Update and the big problems are started... 
In summary:
- The PC is terrible slow now, always, connected or not connected to the net. :(
- Internet Connection via USB Modem are automatically disconnected after a time of inactivity. I've solved this problem by going to Settings, Control Panel, System Menu, Hardware, and on the Device Manager selecting all the USB Root Hubs and disabling the Power Saving option (the XP SP2 enable it and this caused the disconnection).
- My Internet connection stops working after some minutes... this is a strange problem... the connection is alive (I'm not disconnected) but I can't surf anything. I've not found solution to this.
After all these problems, the big slow down of the system after the patch, I've found the best solution for the moment: uninstalling the SP2. Now the system works good, performances are better and... I'm really very happy!!
