Hi Bob,
You can get to the full SP5 128-bit download from following the High
Encryption link here:
<http://www.microsoft.com/ntserver/nts/downloads/recommended/sp5/x86.asp>
As you have already said, IS still recommends SP3 and hotfixes. As for
drivers and programs requiring greater than SP3, could you please send me
any additional information you have found. I am very interested in this
type of information as it pertains to when we may need to move to
recommending SP5 later this year.
Thanks,
Jonathan
