I was wondering while someone was doing a DOS on my server last night.. I applied SQL 2000's SP3 and it stopped it.. Some people have nothing better to do...

Cheers,

It was interesting coming into work Monday morning. The Japan subsidiary uses Oracle exclusively, but HQ uses both Oracle and SQL Server.

The IS guys closed off the WAN link to HQ becuase of the worm. That took internet access and email to internal company sites along with it. A waste of an entire day.
