Ive heard you can download it from the microsoft website but i cant find it there, i dont know where to go or what its called. Could some1 direct me or give me a link to it. thanks,
You can learn all about it here :- http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/advisory/899588.mspx Latest NEWS from Microsoft are :- ""Our initial investigation has revealed that these worms exploit the Windows Plug and Play vulnerability remotely only against Windows 2000-based systems. Windows 2000 systems are primarily at risk from this vulnerability. Windows 2000 customers who have installed the MS05-039 security update are not affected by this vulnerability."" If you are on Windows XP and have kept your O/S updated ; there is nothing for you to worry about !
A application i find useful to find what patches am missing is GFI LANguard Network Security Scanner 6.0 it checks for patches that are missing and downloads them for you. I wish! new exploits are coming out day after day finding even more flaws in MS Os's, I've been reading a book called Stealing The Network How To Own The Box, it's tells stories of people that a pro hackers and every1 of them laughs at how easy Microsoft's Os's are easy to hack and it rather scary what these guys and gals can do.
Those comments related to the worm intrusion referred to in the initial post !! WHY this nit-picking , p4_tt ?? Everybody knows that NOTHING is perfect in this world ! ---------------------------- Edited for a Typo !
Sorry i was not nitpicking even thou nothing was aimed at you!! I know you were talking about the worm i was not talking about that i was talking generally about new exploits for Windows again sorry if i was rude but my post was related too
