first of all fyi, there is no antivirus included with sp2. its just a configurational utility which does nothing more that checks if there exists a antivirus on ur comp, and also if the definitions are up 2 date...dunno nything bout the folder though...

43gg35t63g326 -->> Looks like these are the extracted SP2 files folder. U can delete them if u want, u need to be logged in as admin 2 do tat.

There is no built in Antivirus in XP SP2 .. It have built in firewall ..
Yes you can delete the temporary folder ... Are you sure that installation was complete properly ..? The setup should 've deleted that temp folder .. Anyways .. you can delete it ..

Yes u can delete the folder.Under services.msc stop nd disable security center.It is worthless and sucks a lot of memory.

By the way when i try to delete the "msft" folder inside the "i386" folder, it gives an error that the "windows directory is not empty", but when i open the windows directory,it is completely empty and there r no hidden files or any files..............
Plz hlp as i am unable to delete that folder............
