Poor thing, having to work 14 hours straight.

Apaprently McAfee send out an email to their major corporate custmers
where they admitted that their testing did not include Windows XP SP3.
As Ed Bott said in his blog
<http://blogs.zdnet.com/Bott/?p=2031&tag=nl.e539>

"That is mind-boggling. For enterprise customers, Windows XP SP3 is
probably the most widely used desktop PC configuration. Leaving it out
of a test matrix is about as close as one can get to IT malpractice.
Any enterprise customer who received this document has every right to
be furious."
