Scanning hosts running the Tiny Personal Firewall (2.0.15a) on W2K workstations that have been locked (ctl + alt + del) The popup alert/dialogue jumps to the foreground, thus open to accept permit/deny input from the local console, even when the workstations are locked (ctl + alt + del). Thus an untrusted individual whom has local access to individuals workstations can scan a workstation/network, wait for the popup alert dialogue and enter "permit" on unattended (locked workstations) without the owners permission/knowledge, No need to first unlock (ctl + alt + del) ... CHEERS ...
