-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Ladies and gentlemen of the list: SQL 7 is not vulnerable to the Slammer worm, in my understanding. That said, the latest version of Websense Reporter provides MSDE 7, based on SQL 7, not SQL 2K, and theoretically should not be vulnerable. Just the same, I patched it up to the latest SQL 7 SP to ward off other issues, known and potential, that exist in a base SQL 7 install. I'd rather be safe than sorry with MS patches. Hope this helps. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ R.

I'm using at work in my company Websense Reporter for Websense Enterprise and McAfee Policy Orchestrator, which, under some circumstances (usually the default installation) may install MSDE as storage/query engine. It's shipped as third-party/redistribution packs. There may be also other products, thus hopefully MS or someone else will gather these under a bigger "gray list" other than one described at the locations below (which contains only MS proggies). <snip> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 8.0 iQA/AwUBPkHpg4r2NaPj9yL8EQKLpwCgnMhwTFW2bd7I14YQdQa07Y6mtxkAnRR/ Jc/SFR3zW2UGRR/P9ug/jRhG =7/4d -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
