You're not the only one 
It has its own installer, so just tick the options you want

Everything has been installed but the icon for obtaining SP2 is still there in the taskbar and the Security Center icon is not in my control panel.

It says I need to install SP 2. Should I uninstall AutoPatcher, reinstall it and try again?

No Nothing. it just hangs when it says its inspecting the setup. The CD-Rom runs and then when it gets to inspecting it shuts down so you can't hear it running.

Have you got a CD / DVD Writer to back up any data you need
This install has a quirk which isn't obvious, and it could take a while to track down
The best way forward is to back up the data, clear the drive, install XP, the firewall and anti virus, update those, run a scan and then go straight to Microsoft Update
I would also use boot and nuke to clear the drive when you have backed up the data
Let me know if you want any help with it

Keith, I will definitely need your help. Before all this I was planning on getting some USB flash drives to store my files anyway so I will get them this weekend. Let me get that together and I will get back to you at the latest on Monday

No rush, if you have a CD / DVD writer you can also use that
This is about boot and nuke, using boot and nuke is clickable
To completely erase all data on the drive(s)
Download Boot and Nuke
Using Boot and Nuke
See you next week
