Mission Impossible: Securing MS windWoes...
"These (vulnerabilities) take advantage of two listening services that run on the host and listen for traffic coming in through ports that are frequently utilized," Bitle said. "While a lot of these (other Microsoft) remote execution flaws require interaction (by the user), this one does not. A user doesn't have to click on a link or open an attachment."

The security credentials of MS windows are continuously reaching ever lower depths....

And wait until Vista non-BETA (right wink ) reaches the market: the pain will start ALL OVER AGAIN from scratch. It's not why MS makes shoddy s/w but why people keep buing it ?
