Well I'll be darned...Microsoft cancelled the release of SP5 for Windows 2000, but if you still have some systems running the older OS, don't despair. This major geek has collected over 400 hotfixes and combined them into an "unofficial service pack 5" that you can download here:
Microsoft Windows 2000 Unofficial SP5 SR1
Microsoft Windows 2000 Unofficial SP5 combines 403 hotfixes into a single hotfix - fully automated. It's not just a matter of determining file versions, there's much more to it. The interface is very easy to use since it's identical to a normal Windows update setup.
*As always, download and install ALL software and patches at YOUR own risk and don't shoot one of the dogs because one of them has fleas. Just a pre-note for you.
I have not needed to use but thought it might be something that someone out there needs.
