programs won't connect to internet & i can't contact
Microsoft without paying a support fee to get problem
fixed. Can I remove sp2 and go back to way I was???

Try asking this in a newsgroup related to Windows XP (they all start
microsoft.public.windowsxp)
This newsgroup is for questions relating to security in Access, the database
product that's part of Office Professional.

Welcome to the News Groups for Microsoft Access, the most popular database
in the world! Since this News Group is dedicated to dealing with the
security issues of the database application from the Microsoft Office suite,
you may receive quicker (and possibly correct!) answers by posting your
question in the Microsoft.Public.WindowsXP.configuration_manage News Group.
There are more than 200 applications documented in Microsoft's KB as having
problems with SP-2. If you don't like SP-2 on your computer, then you can
uninstall it or use System Restore to return to an earlier version of your
system. For more information, see these Web pages:
