Doesn't support Aero, and the video will turn black sometimes when I pause it and do something else. Never have such problems with WMP11.

Never had any of these problems, which version do you use? I meant no problems at all, so far, with any of these (Vista&MPC).

«Issue #1 : You cannot uninstall Internet Explorer 7 or Internet Explorer 8 Beta 1 after you install Windows XP Service Pack 3

Impact : Low – in the case of Internet Explorer 8 Beta, a Windows Update detection script will be in place. It will not offer SP3 to IE8 beta users.

KB Content : KB950719»

This is not, I hope, to be interpreted to mean that I shall be unable to install SP 3 on my present (updated) Windows XP Home SP 2 setup when the former becomes available in a Swedish-language version on 5 May ?...

Media Player Classic 6.4.9.1

Is there a new version lately?

The 72MB file size was taken from the internal Microsoft document. It is the size of the download via Windows Update and is probably what you only need to download if you already have SP2 installed.
