BTW you might want to put Security bulletin 05-051 on a fast track for
Win2k or Win XP RTM/SP1.
Microsoft Security Bulletin MS05-051: Vulnerabilities in MSDTC and COM+
Could Allow Remote Code Execution (902400):

*Could the vulnerability be exploited over the Internet? *
Yes, by anonymous users on Windows 2000 and Windows XP Service Pack 1.
Start testing and start deploying because this looks like another Zotob
and eEye already has the details on the web.

The numbers are in the form: major version.minor version.build
number.sub-build number
This is what the versions are for various versions of XP
6.00.2600.0000 Internet Explorer 6 (Windows XP)
6.00.2800.1106 Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1 (Windows XP SP1)
6.00.2900.2180 Internet Explorer 6 for Windows XP SP2
Your second example matches one of my XP machines that was just upgraded
to SP2 and has had no other IE patches applied (yet)

Subject: [ActiveDir] Different Versions of Internet Explorer
We have a web based application that is behaving slightly different
depending on the users version/patches of Internet Explorer. I was
wondering if someone would shed some light as to what the numbers mean
under "Version". I understand it is Version 6.0 but what do the
subsequent numbers mean? I also understand under Update Version those
are probably patches that have been applied.
For example, Computer One works fine and this is what is listed under
Help - About
Version: 6.0.2800.1106 xpsp2.503001-1526
Cipher Strength: 128 bit
Update Version: SP1; Q818529; Q330994; Q828750; Q832894; Q837009;
Q823353; Q867801; Q903235
Computer Two is having the issue and this is what is listed under Help -
About
Version: 6.0.2900.2180 xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519
Cipher Strength: 128-bit
Update Version: SP2
The main difference between the two is Computer One has been on the
network for some time and thus has quite a few security patches whereas
Computer Two is new and only needed a few patches. The problem seems to
be on the new workstations.
Thanks.
Tony
