OT: XP vulnerability

["Graham Howe" <graham@xxxxxxx>]

This is not particularly hot news as it was reported on the register 
2 weeks ago, but for those that haven't seen it, there is a very easy 
to exploit and rather nasty 'feature' in XP that you should fix. Full 
details are here http://24.78.2.184/helpcenter.htm
along with a test 
to show how easy it is to exploit it and some details to fix it. It 
should be noted that at present, the *only* way to fix this through 
MS is the XP SP1, it is not in any of the patches independently.
