Warning: Windows XP Service Pack 2 may ruin your life

Microsoft has released a list of programs potentially screwed up by XP Service Pack 2. Fortunately, the 229 programs listed are fairly obscure. So unless you're some kind of weirdo who runs stuff like:
AOL, Nero, ICQ, Kazaa, Quicken, McAfee VirusScan, Microsoft Office XP (?!), Norton AntiVirus, Yahoo Messenger, or ZoneAlarm, you're fine. The rest of you might want to hold out for Service Pack 2a.

I believe the correct title for this Knowledge Base article should be, "Great googily moogily"

Some of the less obscure entries not mentioned by Jeff that have me in a tizzy:

Eclipse, Pagemaker, Unreal Tournament 2003, Serious Sam: The Second Encounter,
Command & Conquer (Generals and Red Alert), SimCity 4, Cute FTP 5.0, Installshield,
Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic
