http://www.zdnet.com/zdnn/stories/comment/0,5859,2816490,00.html Even if your IIS server was patched did NIMDA still effect it? I thought it took 48hrs for MS to come out with a patch to "fix" the NIMDA virus. You're saying, what does this have to with Linux? I want to make sure I tell clients the facts about NIMDA and IIS so when I recommend Linux and Apache, they know I'm being honest. -- Bob Tanner <tanner at real-time.com> | Phone : (952)943-8700 http://www.mn-linux.org, Minnesota, Linux | Fax : (952)943-8500 Key fingerprint = 6C E9 51 4F D5 3E 4C 66 62 A9 10 E5 35 85 39 D9
