Security Issues with NT4 being no longer supported.

We have a fairly low tech (NT4 SP6a) setup.

NO services are are exposed to any public NICs.

Remote users can access the office netowrk over a VPN - but this is
done through a separate hardware firewall.

NT4 does exactly what we need it to do, and I am loathe to spend
thousands of pounds and weeks of work upgrading to Windows Server
2003.

I know that you can never be too careful etc. But realistically, do I
NEED to upgrade NT4 in order to be secure?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
