I am just pissed that they couldn't get this one out last week> Don't be
surprised if you see a column in a leading magazine from me about this trend
with M$ and other vendors.

The report on line shows Reboot Required if you open all the drop downs. It
is for Remote Code Execution. It is Critical for Server 2003 all SPs and XP
all SPs, Important for Vista/SP1 and Server 2008.

We wont know until 2:00est, I am assuming it is, and it's a bad one so there
is probably exploit code for it roaming the internet and its probably
wormable on top of it.

And it does require a reboot after install. I hate when out of cycle patches
require reboots. I prefer when my users don't know.
