could you translate that into American or Canadian? 

SP2 - Service Pack 2.  Internet Explorer behaves very
differently once SP2 is installed.   Pop-Ups, frames,
DHTML (both JavaScript and Java) all act at least
slightly differently.

It would be nice to have both on hand (IE with and without
SP2)to compare the differences, but as I understand, the
only way to 'uninstall' SP2 is to wipe the system.

So, I develop for "General browsers and pre SP2 IE"
(at the moment).  IE users who have installed SP2 can
take their problems to MS, as far as I am concerned.
