Cant' get rid of the Win9x machines. we're using them as cheap AS/400

Given the attack vector of the initial vulnerability in the Server service,

I would definitely say it is time to get rid of the 9x systems though. I
thought I'd heard the last of those! :-)

Are Windows 9x vulnerable to Conficker or is it just nt-based versions of
