Default Fresh reformat, SP3 question

Hi all,-
This is probably my 3rd thread I've made on these boards about my reformat of my hd. Not trying to be annoying, but I need some help

Anyway,
I got a new hd, got my info recovered and backed up from the crap drive. The new HD has windows XP sp2 installed right now with no updates. My question is, do I have to download + install all the updates between sp2 and sp3 before installing sp3, or can I just install sp3?

Also, what is the best way to install sp3, windows updater, or download from a site (if thats possible, I'm a nub.)

Any help would be appreciated
