Hmm... good point. If eEye's scanner finds it and says it's "vulnerable"
that means it must be at least a Win2k box. Any suggestions on how to find
that machine?

  Wait a minute.

  All the Conficker detectors I know of (which, admittedly, isn't
much) look for an unpatched RPC service, or for an RPC service which
has the signature of the Conficker-provided patch.

  Win 9X doesn't *have* an RPC service, does it?
