You might want to do this M$oft patch right now

MS fessed up that they didn't fully fix the exploit being used by the Blaster worm.

Here's the latest patch directly from the Microsoft Website

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/?url=/technet/security/bulletin/MS03-039.asp

Click on the one appropriate for your operating system.

1. I think Welchia/Nalchi is the one causing all these thousands of pings

I wonder when they'll get around to that one?

3. It seems like the only time I boot Windows anymore

is to install these patches.

My PCs spend most of their time running Linux these days.

5. Why is Microsoft the only major OS that is not

UNIX/Linux based? It seems like with all their money and experience, they'd offer a good OS to their customers.
