Unless something goes seriously awry, you will not lose any personal files or programs when you upgrade from SP2 to SP3. You should be backing up all of your important personal data anyway to prevent accidental loss from such things as hardware failure, ransomware, and other calamities. Until you install SP3, your operating system is not supported by Microsoft and you are not receiving critical security updates. This makes your system vulnerable to a host of exploits, any one of which is far more likely to cause you to lose data than the SP3 installation would be. Backup your stuff and then install SP3.
I dont know how to backup all the stuffs.is that really if I upgrade to sp 3 then no programs or data will lost.and all the programs that are installed now are already present in sp 3.because my sp 2 is working fine and i don"t want to take risk to install sp 3.I have NIS 19.7.1.5,Malwarebytes,SuperAntispyware and ccleaner and many other programs that i have requirement.

Urgent: Support for windows xp SP2 ended July 2010. You are extremely vulnerable because even though Norton can protect you very well, Microsoft needs to plug the security holes in the (OS), operating system. You haven't had any updates in 2 full years, because SP2 is no longer supported.
SP3 was released April 2008. That's been 4 years ago now and it's the very last service pack release for windows xp. This is a link courtesy of Krusty13 ... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/322389
You already have SP2 installed, which is what you would need to upgrade to SP3. You should go to the website and read the information provided and follow the instructions given to install SP3. I upgraded to SP3 back in 2008 with no trouble at all.
All the best.

Depending on how much personal data you store on the computer, backing up can be as simple as copying (not moving) the contents of your My Documents folder to CDs. If you have a lot of data, an external harddrive would be a better choice than CDs.
