Quick question: is this something we have to install in front page like software, or is it something we will have to upload to existing websites?
Please forgive my ignorance.
If I have a website that doesn' t use forms will it still be vulnerable? One of my sites has message boards; but that' s just my own personal " fun" site and wouldnt' be a big deal if anything happened to it.

The technote says to get XP and 2K fixes from windows update, but no updates are available for my XP Pro box at this time.
I was able to d/l the NT4 patch for fpse2000 a short time ago.
