Unhappy XP with SP2 - driving me mad

Just put my new PC together, having avoided SP2 up to now.

It seems there is a new "feature" with SP2 called Data Execution Prevention. This apparently stops dangerous code being run and is controlled through Control Panel. Guess what it stops me opening - Control Panel

Does anyone have any idea how I can rid myself of this helpful tool?
