As spindles has indicated there are ways to identify if you wish to use the MS firewall or continue with your existing firewall/security settings.

I still havent reloaded it; because my system is running great- its the security leaks Im concerned about.
There is less to consider worrying about if you bring the OS up-to-date by install the SP. To insist avoiding installing the SP because of security leaks is like installing XP onto a new box and not performing any updates at all.

Still it's your call, do what you feel comfortable with.

Longhorn won't be available until the third to last quarter of 2006 I think.

There's still the option of going down the exciting road of Linux.
