I'd install SP2. I personally run WinXP Pro Sp2, with zonealarm and NO antivirus on my system (I have a second system with AVG that ill scan any download i dont trust) I also only use Internet Explorer and in the 4 months I have been running this setup, not a single problem. I currently ran ad-aware and it pulled up nothing but cookies, and a couple of online virus scanners showed nothing as well. Its all about where you surf, and not having SP2 in my experience keeps you vulnerable to those clever code writers to slip something into your system.
