XP SP2 Retriever
I have created a small utility to download the XP SP2 file directly from Microsoft's web site.

The utility will download the file and then check to ensure the downloaded file is actually the XP SP2 file from the MS web site

This file can safely be posted to P2P networks so users can be confident in obtaining the actual MS XP SP2 file as opposed to a file that has been modified or hijacked.

You can download the file from http://www.firewallreporting.com/downloads/xpsp2retriever.zip
