XP SP2 RC1

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

KC Lemson was kind enough to point to Jeff’s post with some details about changes that will be coming to Internet Explorer with Windows XP Service Pack 2. I like what I’m hearing here about the popup blocker and the Active X controls. If it works as advertised it’s definitely a step in the right direction!

On a side note, Angela’s site is currently in the process of being moved, so you may have some funkiness and it may be unreachable for some people. As with any DNS change, give it a couple of days, hopefully by the time we get back from Richmond on Monday, it’ll all be back to normal!
