    Where on the puter can I found updates for the XP Home Edition after June 13th ?
    Will there be a thing I can connect to so I can stay updated till I can afford to switch ?
    Or do I have to go without ? Not a good idea Am I to worry ? Am I alone in this jouney?

    If you are running XP SP3, you will be offered updates through 2014.
    Extended support for XP SP3 will end on April 8, 2014, according to Microsoft's XP lifecycle page.

    I'll have to find the elusive page. I've posted it a few times. If you search, you get an old page from 2002 with the incorrect dates showing.

    If you down load and upgrade to SP3 you will not have to do anything, well that is until 2014!

    Maybe by then, I'll get to where I can stand Vista.
    NOT.
    Will probably stay on XP.
