News on Microsoft's aging Windows XP operating system has surprisingly been coming in at a steady pace over the past few weeks. Although Windows Vista is Microsoft's current bread-and-butter consumer operating system, there is still much love to go around for Windows XP. The latest SP3 beta is labeled as build 3205 and is a rather
small 334.92 MB download. The bloggers over at NeoSmart
have gotten a hold of the new SP3 release and have detailed many of the new
features and bugfixes with the software update. According to NeoSmart,
SP3 contains 1,073 hotfixes and patches; 114 of which are security related. SP3
also adds four major features to the Windows XP operating systems. The first is a new activation scheme which will not require
a product key during installation. The second feature is a new Network Access
Protection Module first featured in Windows Vista. Other new items include
a Microsoft Kernel Mode Cryptographics Module and a Black Hole Router detection
algorithm. | ||
