Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all you CF'ers! And thank you for all the help you've given me during 2002. I'm astonished at how many of you are working at this time. Here in Australia, hardly anyone's working (although there are some who say it's pretty hard to tell the difference).
To today's problem .... I've been trying to identify what's causing my new WinXP Pro to keep dialing out to my isp, and I have seen in the event viewer that there's a lot of activity in my SQL2000. I'm particularly interested in a number of items labeled 8128 : Using 'xpsqlbot.dll' version '2000.80.194' to execute extended stored procedure 'xp_qv'. These have run at a time when I have been in bed asleep and certainly not doing anything on my system. I haven't set up any stored procedures myself yet - this is a brand new SQL2000 installation and hasn't got any live data on it yet. I'm thinking this is a hack attempt (probably successful). Is there any legitimate reason why SQL2000 should be active when nothing else is on my system? Since this is (or at least WAS) a default installation, is there anything called xp_qv that has a legitimate use?
