Once you do the clean install all will be fine. Initially I installed over an older SP Beta just to see if it would work. On restart, Sygate warned me about a blocked communication, traced it to Microsoft! After the clean install I had no such repeat of that incident.

I don't know if I'll install or not...Xp is running just fine at the moment so I don't see a need unless a big performance boost is possible.

Down the road with a PC upgrade I may need SP1 , until then....why ?

This is why according to Microsoft:

Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack Provides Enhanced User Experience

Increased Security, Reliability and Compatibility Make Windows XP the Foundation for the Future for Consumer and Enterprise Users

For myself, my PC runs a bit faster with SP1 installed.
