It seems there have been a few problems with Microsofts latest service packs. Windows XP SP3 was set to be released on April 29th I believe, however it has been postponed until further notice because it seems to cause a problem with the Dynamics Retail Management System. This problem is also present in windows Vista SP1, which is why it is no longer available from Microsoft Update for download.
