I have had some success installing SR/SecureClient on XP, some meaning that depending on what type of adapter I am using. One I know for sure has worked perfectly was Xircom. I was told that Checkpoint is trying to come up with something noteworthy for installations on XP.......not that I understand why anyone in their right mind would chose XP over Win2k.

Whether SR works on XP or not seems to be dependent on the configuration you're using it in. I have attempted to install SR/SecureClient on Build 2600 of XP on 5 different machines. ANYplace I've tried to install iton the LAN adapters, it crashes the system during installation (blue screen in FW.SYS, if I remember correctly). Microsoft is aware of the problem, and was (when I last checked) in the process of putting this driver on its "bad driver list". Also, note that if you try to use the single log in features (or whatever they're called), these will also not work, because of changes to the GINA between Win2K and XP. Though I tried, I have not been able to get ANY response from Checkpoint (or Nokia, who provides our support) on when a version that supports XP will be available. So, the ultimate answer is: SecuRemote/SecureClient DOES NOT work correctly on XP. Depending on your configuration, you MIGHT be able to use it, but it is clearly broken.
