Summary
Windows (R) XP Service Pack 3 (SP3) contains all the updates previously released by the operating system and a few new updates, the objective is to ensure that Windows XP customers have the latest updates to their systems. Windows XP SP3 does not significantly change the Windows XP experience. This White Paper provides an overview of new features in Windows XP SP3 and how to deploy this Service Pack.

Introduction
Microsoft has been persistently Improving the performance, security, and stability of the Windows operating system. During this period, Microsoft developed various updates, patches and Other improvement features to address issues reported by our customers and partners. To facilitate customers to obtain these updates and enhancements, Microsoft periodically combines them into a package that is available to all Windows customers. These packages are called ServicePack. Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3) contains all previously released Windows XP updates, including security updates and patches. This also includes the selection of out-of-band versions and a small number of new enhancements that do not significantly change the user experience for the operating system. Windows XP SP3 provides a new benchmark for customers who are still deploying Windows XP. For customers who have existing Windows XP installations, Windows XP SP3 fills in the updates they may have missed. For example, some updates are rejected when Windows Update is used. Windows Vista provides the most advanced security and management functions, but for PCs that cannot be upgraded to Windows Vista immediately, windows XP SP3 ensures that these PCs have all available updates and allows these PCs to take advantage of some new features of Windows Server 2008, such as network access protection (NAP ). This White Paper introduces new features in Windows XP SP3 and outlines how customers can deploy this Service Pack.

Content contained in Service Pack 3
Windows XP SP3 contains all previously released Windows XP updates, including security updates, patches, and selection of out-of-band versions. For example, this Service Pack contains features previously released as updates, such as Microsoft (R) Management Console (MMC) 3.0 and Microsoft Core XML Services 6.0 (MSXML6 ). Microsoft does not use XP SP3 to add important functions of newer versions of Windows (such as Windows Vista) to Windows XP. For example, Windows XP SP3 does not contain Windows Internet Explorer 7, but Windows XP SP3 contains updates to InternetExplorer 6 and Internet Explorer 7, no matter which version is installed on the computer, it will be updated. For details about InternetExplorer 7, visit http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/ie/default.mspx. One obvious exception is that SP3 includes network access protection (NAP), which aims to help organizations that use Windows XP use new features in Windows Server (R) 2008 operating systems.
