Make of that what you will.
Just some additional information, it adds an extra validation registry
entry if using XP at least, this is not always automatically removed if
you uninstalled the software patch. This will still impact transferred.
Further digging revealed the main issue is around ceratin types of file
name used which apparently were not being validated correctly by the SMB
server software, and creating a security hole in the file sharing.
Looks like LANMAN/LANMAN98 will need updating to handle the tighter
security.
