Tough sp2 Problem

I have sp2 installed and it's working fine.The only problem I have is that
sp2 was supposed to have changed the Internet Connection Firewall-Internet
connectionSharing service in control panel to "Windows Firewall-Internet
connection Sharing". A name change. This never happened for me. I still have
the old entry. It doesn't seem to be a problem for me since I use a third
party firewall(Zonealarm). However, this change is an update that i don't
have,and since it also changed how this service operates, i wonder if I can
update it somehow? For futher information , the sp2 change also ignored the
update/change in name for the "Portable Media Serial number" service that
changed it's name to "Portable Media Serial Number Service". In this case,
I now have both entries in the services panel...........Any help or advice
would be appreciated? I also wonder why this would happen?

Hi

I suspect a incomplete SP2 installation. I suggest you uninstall SP2,
and then install it again.
