Well I guess if you dont know how to manage your computer and you use hacked software, 90% of which has some back door or keylogger now installed. More power to you. First thing you might want to do is consider you security before you use these downloaded hacks and cracks they will screw you, as I am reading. But by refusing to update for the purpose of using illiegal software you are setting yourself up for problems. Good luck. By the way I have updated probaly over a 100 xp machines for service pack 2 including home computers, gaming computers, and corporate machines, and the only problems I have is when the user f..ks up their machine or has questionable software installed.
