<a name="0f5e473a"></a><b>[*] Note:</b> Windows XP has reached "end of life" on April 8th, 2014. This means that *no* updates or bugfixes<br>
for Windows XP will be available beyond that date. Thus, any security vulnerabilities discovered *after* this<br>
deadline will remain open, forever! Consequently, using Windows XP has become a security nightmare. And the<br>
situation is only going to get worse! While LameXP will continue to support Windows XP (needs Service Pack 3)<br>
for the foreseeable future, we *highly* recommend everybody to update to a less antiquated system now.<br>
Windows XP support will be discontinued in a future version, when most users have migrated to a newer system.<br><br>
