    most users belive thay got a update from microsoft in mail, microsoft NEWER sends updates :-)

    Probably. But then, none of my machines can use that update anyways. :)

    i just seen that the port 135 and samba have being more trafic on, even for swat, microsoft need to fix broadcasting :/

    The problem is that SMB/CIFS relies on this, and if you remove this
    'feature',
    lots of things will break. The problem is that MS cannot reinvent the wheel without breaking everything in the past, and they know that can't mandate an upgrade everywhere simultaneously.

    In other words, not much of consequence.

    port 135 is blocked in my shorewall :-)

    nt kernels have bugs thay can't fix in the same trouble, so thay trying to patch programs around it to fix the trouble, if it was linux the kernel was fixed :-)
