really?
Hi Peter,
This isnt so much a help question, but I would be interested to know what you think about this article:

Seems very interesting, how many NT servers are prone to this bug?

Ravi,
I was surprised by this bug also. Once news of this got around, all the major NT hosts made sure they had the patch. I have NT accounts with Powersurge and Virtualscape and both those hosts checked out ok.
This was a MAJOR bug since many ASP developers store sensitive information inside ASPs, like DB usernames and passwords among other things.
You would think that with every new release of IIS they would fix this, it's been kicking around in one form or another since IIS3, so far IIS5 is looking ok, but we'll have to wait and see.
Regards,
