I currently use internet explorer with SP1, I probably will never update to SP2, I heard about lots of problems people had after updating it. So my question is , what browser are you all using and why? thanks

personaly i use IE and just installed Firefox just to see if my site was compatible.
as for the upgrade or not..
well this is my personal opinion ...

i believe that when people have a computer and never messed around withit because they think "i know it better" then you can run the sp2 without being affraid for things not to work anymore.

a good friend of mine did the sp2 upgrade and also without any problems.
however his wife who always used her computer to download everywhere and chat on whatever idiot room completely crashed the first try.
so thats a nice sample...
so if your stuff is clean ,then go ahead and dont be affraid to upgrade.
