Except if the patch breaks your server, so if you don't need it right
this moment because as stated it doesn't apply to your server - why be
the beta tester :)

Given that many (if not the vast majority) of users have admin rights on
their respective machines, patching IE across the board seems like a
good idea. I keep my ISA locked down and patched to the gills for two
reasons: 1. Anything the good guys can make, the bad guys can break.
Once a hole is discovered, you can bet your granny's panties that some
slimy script-kiddie is out looking for you. 2. MS doesn't release
security patches for no reason.  If someone can convince them that they
have a hole; they're very quick to plug it and any others lying nearby.

Hey Guys,

After reading this thoroughly I am a little confused as to the need to
patch.

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/secur
ity/
bulletin/MS02-027.asp

Is this needed only if you are running proxy clients? Or are webservers
somehow vulnerable as well...

It seems like anyone who has admin access that views a webpage would
'enable' this vulnerability in the users security context.

I did not see any conversations here about it...

Did most people patch?

Thanks!
