This is funny but not funny. As I sit here doing a little work, on the local TV news comes a story about local businesses who's computers cannot boot because of this new LovSan or Blaster worm that exploits weaknesses in the RPC (remote procedure call) service in Windows NT, 2000, and XP. I didn't follow it completely but evidently the worm is somehow preventing many people from even booting their computers that they need to do to download the patch. CNET has a complete story here.
I'm not trying to be smug, but it is nice to sit here working on my TiBook, and simply reflect on these problems without having to scramble to download all those patches!!
