Microsoft isn't hiding the link:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/1/6/5/165b076b-aaa9-443d-84f0-73cf11fdcdf8/WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe

linked from:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/maintain/winxpsp2.mspx
(well, click "get the service pack" and then "download")

Just because sp2torrent.com is down doesn't mean the rest of the torrent
world is.  Supernova.org seems to have some links to an SP2 torrent or
two.

as usual, ymmv,
