From: z1 on 27 Feb 2010 23:41 Support is ending for some versions of Windows Support for Windows Vista without any service packs will end on April 13, 2010. Support for Windows XP with Service Pack 2 (SP2) will end on July 13, 2010. If you're running one of these versions after support ends, you won't get security updates for Windows. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/help/end-support-windows-xp-sp2-windows-vista-without-service-packs?os=other
