No help I'm afraid, but I see XP Service Pack 2 also now prevents JavaScript hiding ("status=no") of the status bar in Internet Explorer pop-up windows. Seems a shame if features like this which can be useful in creating clean website interfaces are lost in a "belt and braces" approach to security fixes. Especially when far more pressing security lapses in Windows are overlooked...
