SP3 for XP available. Got problems or did it go smoothly?

MicrosoftwindowsxpprofessionalupgraMicrosoft got SP3 for Windows XP out the door a few days ago on the Microsoft Downloads site, although some folks might have seen it sooner through Windows Update. I haven’t got around to the install on the one XP machine I have, but I’ll be hitting it up shortly. Here’s where you can find the service pack if you need it.For those that already ran through the upgrade: did you have any issues? I’m asking because one of our readers shared a lengthy and detailed horror story with us; I’m not sharing the info just yet because I didn’t ask for his or her permission. The scenario was pretty bad though… the solution will likely end up becoming a full system rebuild, which is about as bad as it can be. Anyway, share your thoughts: positive or negative. Meanwhile, I’m firing up the XP machine to give it a run through myself.Update: my update took about an hour. No issues to report.
