the tool removal and bulletins say it's for MSDE, but
mine is installed thru an application (no vendor does not
have fix) and mine says MSDA and JET 4.0 and is OLEDB
Provider for ODBC drivers (MSDTC) I shut down ports
1433 and 1434 and 26101 and 35894 (last two are
backdoors). but i am clueless on what to do about
patches. i really don't use SQL except thru how my
application calls on it to do it's job. i am getting
buffer overflow and DoS. ouch.
