Yup, sad but true.
I can understand that Microsoft doesn't keep supporting older products, but I don't understand why they right now stop with XP SP1.

They are stopping support for old their old versions including SP1, because they are coming out with IE7 soon. IE7 only works on XP SP2+, therefore to make sure everyone possible is using IE7 they stopped support for old operating systems that don't support IE7. If you ask me, it's creating a bit of an unfair monopoly.
