Successfull Sp3 today-thanks MVPs

Today my invite to install Sp3 arrived so with trepidation I went to the
update center to download.
There were three other updates-the usual Ms anti malicious file stuff and
the MSOffice 2007 (which I don't have installed but something triggers that
update) I installed those first and went back to Sp3.
Turned off Spybot Tea Timer and just as the download was ready to install
turned off the Antivirus.
It wasn't a big download and it proceeded smoothly although there is a
period of time when it appears nothing is happening but my router lights
were flashing so I relaxed.
Reboot was normal and all appears to be working normally.

I'm appreciative for the advice and instructions posted in this newsgroup
regarding this update.I was able to be well prepared including 'getting
round to' learning the Image the system process and made the boot CD <grin>
None of this was needed.
