MSDE SP3 isn't supported yet. The upgrade instructions for fixing the W32.Slammer virus are posted at:

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/788/AVVID/unity3_4_slamworm.html

However, they're being updated right now. Give them a couple of hours to be updated. When it's fixed, the MSDE instructions will say:

* You CAN use the automatic installer.

* Do the upgrade using the doc at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;330391.

* SP installations don't always update the registry correctly, so the installer for the patch may not recognize that you have SP2, which is required to install the patch. The doc explains how to hack the registry with the correct version number.
