A review for service pack 2 was recently written by stephen J Friedl of unixwiz.com. The review among other things, illustrates each new security feature which include:
New "Windows Firewall"
Local subnet restriction
DCOM/RPC Security Enhancements
"On with no exceptions" firewall mode
Disable execute on data-only pages
Heap "Sandboxing"
Annoying (in a good way) "Security Center"
Task Scheduler security context
Attachment Execution Service
Restricted "preview" in Outlook Express
IE: Managing Add-ons
IE: Better Zone Management
IE: MIME type checking
"Alerter" and "Messenger Services" Disabled
