    Michael,
    
    You're correct. We started to get flooded at 03:00 AM
    (now its 09:20 am down here), and found the solution
    about 30 min after: shutting down all W2K SQLs. Now we
    have all 1434 and 1433 blocked. 1433 seems to be
    important too.
    
    Please check this:

    We had troubble downloading the patch.. too busy. I got
    it now, and made a mirror. Please feel free to get it
    and patch your SQL 2k.
