Sure... But since the object of the exploit is to gain control of a computer over the internet, it would be kind of worthless to have it run on a computer in a secure zone, unless it's an internal hacker who wants control of the computer.But of course everyone should patch it anyway. |

Yeah but couldn't you build a "drone" that launches the code..then sends instruction through? And redirect out, or if malicious just start blowing things away..Like a nested sproc?Brett8-)SELECT POST=NewId() |
