Title: New M$ Worm
Post by Kirk on Aug 11^th, 2003, 5:04pm

The new and improved DCOM Worm is on the loose.
Affects only you folks with the M$ NT Kernel.
Win2K, XP and 2003 server. Win98 folks can ignore this. You got left out. Sorry.

Your patch is here http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/?url=/technet/security/bulletin/MS03-026.asp

Go get the patch folks. I'll go get a beer.

TTFN

The security hole M$ mentioned from a week/10 days ago, though, does affect 98, correct?

Yep Brian that one was amonsgt other things a HTML Conversion exploit. Not quite the same as a Remote Process Call (RPC).
It affected all versions of M$ Windows except 3.1 ;D.

What do I know though? I just a poor white trash hippie from Oregon.

Beer thirty

Perhaps. But it WAS all tongue planted firmly in cheek, though. Damned internet. Won't display my inner thoughts and emotions. All in good fun, I hope you know.
