Since you didn't sign the message, I don't know who to address it to...but here goes...

Don't get hung up over the reference to NetBIOS. Articles in the media aren't generally written by folks who know or are able to accurately describe what really happened. This mysterious "NetBIOS vulnerability" could easily be something as simple as poorly protected file sharing...ie, no passwords. Just b/c the "news" article appears in 2002, it doesn't mean that it's a "new" vulnerability.

If you really wanted to know what vulnerability is, try tracking down a copy of the "FB3" code...
