are still providing the file for version 5.1.2600.3311, which is the original SP3 RC2 upgrade.
I upgraded today from version 5.1.2600.3311 to version 5.1.2600.5508 in both of my desktops. I have no idea what's new or different between the 2 versions, but I have noticed a snappier response.
(This is for information only and is not intended to encourage users to make the upgrade from SP2.)
