Security Breach

It is amazing how many NT based web servers are still vulnerable to RDS exploit even if this hole is more than a year old by now. My intention was not to delete (only log files were erased) or compromise in anyway system files, but to warn Administrator that security should be taken seriously. They say it is more difficult to secure web servers than to break into them, but you should at least patch critical and well-known holes like RDS and Unicode.
