Re:thanks, all :) I'll do that

Re:I hate active virus scanners. When I want to check for viri, I will run a scan!

Re:I know SP1 will do this is you have a virus scanner running while applying. So I feel sure SP2 would as well. It's recommended that you disable virus scanners when applying a SP.

Re:I think sometimes Norton is a little to causious about JAVA stuff.I would try to disable norton and then load the SP2 and if you want run norton after install to make sure,You may need that file that was deleated.
