Nice little tool here for those who like Windows but either want more customisation and/or security

With XPlite and 2000lite we give YOU the power to set up YOUR machine the way
YOU want! The power to remove unwanted features, the power to remove upgrades
that go bad, the power to strip potential security and privacy threats out by
the roots.

More than a powerful configuration utility - XPlite and 2000lite give you
amazing control to repair Windows as well. If a particular technology gives
you trouble you can completely remove it, and then reinstall it as cleanly as
the day Windows was first installed on your computer.

The ultimate security system? There can be little argument that certain
Microsoft technologies have proven themselves to put your privacy, security
and system stability at risk. The sheer number of Windows Update security
fixes that are released on an almost daily basis testify to this fact. You
can choose alternate technologies to avoid the security risks, yet the flawed
components remain on your system unused, until the next irresponsible hacker
or malicious script takes advantage of the situation. Everybody should be
running with the latest patches and Service Packs - but is this enough?
XPlite and 2000lite allow you to completely remove features that might put
you at risk. For example - many email viruses use Outlook Express and the
Windows Address Book to invade your privacy and that of your friends whose
addresses you have stored. If you choose to use an alternate email system
then XPlite and 2000lite allow you to totally remove Outlook Express and the
Windows Address Book from your system. Now you know you are protected!

Go to the Windows Beta Site for SP2 and you can download it.

A word for the wise however, we all know how 'unreliable' the retail versions of Microsoft service packs are - you wanna take the risk on a Beta Copy? I tried it and promptly removed it.

Fixes are largely ineffectual anyway
