As far as i know, Windows File Protection has always been a WinXP feature for some time. But I never got any of those popups when installing drivers and the such with WinXP SP1 and WinXP SP2. The only time I ever remember seeing the Windows File Protection prompt was when replacing the uxtheme.dll file to support unsigned Windows Visual Styles.
I just did a WinXP SP3 (slipstreamed) clean install, and just plugging in a USB flash drive for the first time causes the Windows File Protection popup to appear 3 times. And I'm getting a Windows File Protection popup with every driver that i install.
Did something change from SP2 to SP3 that would cause it to start popping up when it didn't before?
