Thanks for complicating my morning Ed  Logging into 5 2000 boxes over Terminal Services to run windows update is just the thing to wake me up.

Only 5, I had to tS into 12 2000 boxes and 6 XP boxes to do this update. Hmm... maybe it's time to invest in an SMS server.

I know I will probably be flamed for this and I hasten to add that I will patch myself and the Office PC's
But why would anyone go to the effort of exploiting this when you can send an email to a user with a attachment labelled Virus.pif and spread it to millions of users.
Its not the holes in Windows that we should fear its the hole between the users ears that I fear

I've been getting the "500" error that last three times I've been trying to access windows update. Luckily, we've got the auto update on one machine, so we've got a copy to install locally.

Yes....because of panic messages like this!
Windows Update is slow because all of ppc thoughts is hitting it at the same time(my theory). Let me calm everyone down a bit....the world is not falling. You will be OK!  Now, make sure you visit Windows Update at least once a week or once a day if your paranoid. There that feels better doesn't it? :roll:

Ah, the joys of being on a corporate PC. We can't run Microsoft Update from our desktop PCs. Our servers, yes. But, not our desktops. Blech.
