You can download SP4 for W2K here http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=1001aaf1-749f-49f4-8010-297bd6ca33a0&displaylang=en
You can also create an installation CD with SP4 integrated into it so that the next time you install Windows, you already have SP 4 on there :). If you want the instructions, PM me with an email address.

Hello,

While you are at it, you might want to consider doing that with Microsoft Office service packs too. And you can get the Office toolkit thingy and make your own MST files.
