I would say it is even worse than that. If CodeRed and Nimda rely on vulnerabilities on open services (i.e. HTTP), Slammer and Blaster rely on vulnerabilities on services that _should_ not be accessible to the Internet. This means to me Slammer and Blaster worms could have been prevented had everyone implemented a decent filtering scheme on its routers/firewalls... Especially regarding Slammer, for SQL Server is most a professional application. Blaster, as it also targets everyone, including thoses who are not skilled/informed enough to take good prevention mesures. Nevertheless, Blaster is blocked by any personnal firewall... -- http://www.netexit.com/~sid/ PGP KeyID: 157E98EE FingerPrint: FA62226DA9E72FA8AECAA240008B480E157E98EE >> Hi!
