Steve,

My thanks go out to you, this has stopped his hacking fenzy dead in its tracks. I have also enabled XP's personal firewall as well and made a far more difficult password to deal with. Question remains why doesnt MS have NT5.x+ boxes disable LANMAN and the sort to begin with? I know backwards compatability but you would think they would have the NT boxes upload directory services client to the 9x box and save us all the trouble.

Anyways guys thx a million you have made my machine safer and ill be sure to spread this information to others.
