For Immediate Recommendation To All Visitors

[Alpine]

Microsoft has requested all MS contacts to inform their customers that they should install MS03-026 patch which affects ALL NT based systems immediately

Reminder: over a week ago MS released a critical patch for a security issue in RPC, All NT based Windows editions are affected Windows NT4, Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows Server 2003.

If a worm is developed to use this exploit CodeRED and Slammer will look like child play. Please apply the patch ASAP, don't wait till after the weekend, codes to develop a worm are already posted in hacker forums.

CodeRED and Slammer did not do much damage on the local system, it concentrated on spreading itself via the network.
This time a malicious hacker could decide to wipe the system after it has infected 10 machines. With this exploit it can gain access with system privileges, which is the highest privilege on a Windows system.



DL for Windows NT4 & TSE/2000/XP 32&64/2003 32&64:

If this virus comes into my mailbox, I will laugh in it's face ... then pass it on to some people I don't particularly like anymore.

1.41 mb!!!! I'm on 56k, connected at 26.4!!! This is gonna take a while...

Thanks for the update though!

It's worthwile billybob3, just save it to your harddrive and if you ever have to reformat your system you won't have to download it again.

I doubt that users like me (using Windows XP SP2 v1204+) are affected by the worm (msblast.exe) because we weren'r able to install the patch on SP2.

[DoG]

No, i just think that some machines with XPSP2 have the wrong file versions for the patch to update.

If you extract the archive it has an XPSP2 folder in their for patching certain builds of SP2
