    Hi

    Not a stupid question at all, SP3 for Xp is supported until 21st April 2010 which is lifecycle timescale after initial release

    However support in help on software issues will continue on forums like Majorgeeks, you will just see less and less updates over the next 6 months or so.

    Not to forget, XP itself will get support through 2014 :)

    So you will still get security and critical updates.
