Classic MS Craftmanship ... wink
The flaw addressed in MS06-040 is the only one in Microsoft's Tuesday patch bunch that could let an anonymous attacker remotely commandeer a Windows PC without any user interaction, Budd said. Microsoft has seen a "very limited attack" that already exploited this flaw, he said.

The infamous MSBlast worm, which wreaked havoc in 2003, exploited a similar flaw, related to a Windows component called remote procedure call.

Haven't they fixed this already ? After all these MEGA-PATCHES already out they STILL have very fundamental security problems ?

Classic MS Crapmanship: they built a beast that consistently resists correction almost as if it were an intelligent being.... wink

OR, is this a "compelling reason" to swith to Vista? ....
