Post #173,118 by deSitter 9/8/04 1:28:07 PM Reply	Sorry, thought you were on XP Install Service Pack 4. D/L the entire thing and install locally. It sounds like you've got the RPC server exploit, see here: [link\|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=127320\|http://z.iwethey.org...?contentid=127320] You need at least SP3. Installing 4 will fix it. -drl
Post #173,421 by jb4 9/9/04 7:57:20 PM Reply	The trouble w/ SP>2 is That Micros~1 added the "Phone Home" ~~virus~~feature to W2K at that point. While I'd like very much to be rid of that problem, I don't want BillG(e) mucking around in my machine...not sure which is better. Now if there were a way to disable the "Phone Home" ~~virus~~feature.... jb4 shrub\ufffdbish (Am., from shrub* + rubbish, after the derisive name for America's 43 president; 2003) n. 1. a form of nonsensical political doubletalk wherein the speaker attempts to defend the indefensible by lying, obfuscation, or otherwise misstating the facts; GIBBERISH. 2. any of a collection of utterances from America's putative 43rd president. cf.* BULLSHIT
