There is a command you need to type so Windows will clear out the SP3 junk files.
When that is done, SP3 will stay permanent and uninstalling will not be available.

Can't seem to find it for XP, but Vista is "vSp1cln.exe".
You can try looking at the SP3 command switches or check MS's
SP3 preinstall .chm documentation kit.
