This doesn't make much sense at all. 64bit binaries are exploitable. There are also exploits for several 32bit systems. If done "right" these will give the attacker shell access to the server. Your comments about threaded vs "multi processed" are only relevant when the exploit is not "done right" (when the server SEGVs). - ask -- ask bjoern hansen, http://askbjoernhansen.com/ !try; do();
