      Just as a side note, but it shows that it's not only the MBSA that 
    exposes this sort of damaging information, the vulns list can also be
    remotely inferred if SNMP is enabled, since it is possible to enumerate 
    the list of installed service packs / hot fixes and thereby deduce any
    omissions:  example from "snmputil walk <ip.addr> public .1.3.6.1.2.1."
