Amer, Actually it has ... check out www.incidents.org. It appears that most of the CRII and III traffic is coming from W2K servers from home user machines. At least, for me it is.

(Slightly OT) Hi All, All the advisories about CR state that only IIS servers are vulnerable. However, it's my understanding that the unchecked buffer in idq.dll was the source of that vulnerability. If that's the case, then why have the advisories not included Win2K systems (all flavours) since idq.dll is installed by default as part of the indexing service on all these systems - regardless of whether they are using the service or not? Wouldn't that make ANY system with the indexing service on it just as vulnerable as systems with IIS? Am I overlooking something obvious here?
