I have a computer that has a SP1 already installed on
it. The Windows Update says that it has better security
from hackers, viruses, and worms. Should I take the time
to install it? Very Curious, Mike

If your system(s) has/have been properly maintained, you should have no
problems. I'm no computer expert, but the 6 systems I've installed SP2 on
are running flawlessly. Do a backup just to be safe, check for spyware and
the like, defrag before and after installation and you should have no
problems.
