All, One thing that definitely will make certain products unhappy is M$ has turned off outbound connections on the loopback subnet 127.0.0.0/8. So any product that used to utilize a loopback address for connectivity is not going to be able to do that anymore with SP2 unless some serious modifications occur, and this is *not* related to the Internet Firewall feature AFAIK.
