Hi I agree with this statement "And I understand ... I'm on a contract working around 30,000 total end user computer systems, and I'd bet that somewhere around 3500 or more are still *active* Windows 2000 systems. Some of them think that since the new Patch Tuesday releases don't announce vulnerabilities against Win2000 any longer, that the new vulnerabilities don't apply ... Arggggh"
I have also had comments that because winodws 2000 is so mature it now doesn't have any vulnerabilities I just have to look after the customers systems, which I do as well as I can Regards Nigel -----Original Message----- From: Erik Goldoff [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 07 February 2011 14:25 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: FIREWALL No worries ... there are a few similar sites that archive old versions of freeware .... good for getting freeware that evolved to shareware/paidware, like PowerArchiver ... used to be a great FREE alternative to Winzip before they became a $$ license only.
