Downloading MS02-018 (the new IIS security rollup patch addressed in
Q319733) from Microsoft's "Windows Update" website yields a different patch
than the one that can be downloaded directly from the Q aritcle page located
at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q319733
Downloading from "Windows Update" will get you version 5.0.2195.4624 of
ftpmib.dll
Downloading from the Q article will get you version 5.0.2195.5255 if
ftpmib.dll
Consequently if you attempt to apply this patch via "Windows Update",
hfnetchk will consider the patch not found.
I have notified MS of the discrepancy.

The underscore character should not be used in dns names in the first
place.
From page one of RFC 952...
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc0952.txt?number=952
<quote>
A "name" (Net, Host, Gateway, or Domain name) is a text string up
to 24 characters drawn from the alphabet (A-Z), digits (0-9), minus
sign (-), and period (.).
</quote>
For additional information about host names and numbers, see page twelve
of RFC 1123.
