On the other hand, if you're a big financial company with 50K warm bodies on
the payroll, there's a good chance you have 1 or 2 developers that often VPN
in, and who have installed MSSQL so they can test&develop locally rather than
against a remote database. And it only takes 1.....
It may be a corner case, but based on the number of sites that got nailed by
Slammer even though they had a firewall, it's a pretty common corner case....
