Apparently the anti-piracy measures from Service Pack 1 (i.e. it wouldn't install if you had used one of several known-to-be-pirated codes) won't be used in Service Pack 2, in order that all XP computers can be protected from the viruses/trojans, etc., that take advantage of flaws that will be fixed in SP2.

hopefully everyone will install this one and put and end to all this virus spam

and airetam_storm, its highly unlikey that a service pack for windows will repair your cracked install of raven shield (think its a game)

Could he mean that Raven Shield might install something like Starforce?
