Not all versions of doze are vulnerable ..my XP had the file "shimgvw.dll" ( dealt with ) ..my 98II ( which is the only doze box allowed to talk to the outside doesn't have the affected .dll anyway ) ..the other 98II's didnt either

( interesting that although MS think they shipped the 98 series with this defect /hole ..they refuse to support their products in this series ..they weren't sold with "may contain unsafe and crappily done code" on the box )

again regmon and worm watchers will save you lots of grief ..as will running "out of date doze" to access the net.

the now two running ubuntu let me laugh with the others
