Subject: New Microsoft security bulletins today



Yes, I got the same.  Somethings I found though:

It's complaining about "basesrv" a dynamicly linked library.  I rebooted
into Linux and ran some finds and found 3 files:

WINNT/$NtUninstallKB824141$/basesrv.dll
WINNT/ServicePackFiles/i386/basesrv.dll
WINNT/system32/dllcache/BASESRV.DLL

the one in system32/dllcache is dated Aug5, the other two are dated June
19th.  As soon as I finish backing up a couple critical files I'm going
to use the recovery console to copy the $NTUninstall version back to
system32/dllcache and see if that helps.



Thus spake Ben Nelson (lists@...om600.org):

DISCLAIMER:
      These are MY OPINIONS ALONE.  I speak for no-one else.

Life is not a destination, it's a journey.
  Microsoft produces 15 car pileups on the highway.
    Don't stop traffic to stand and gawk at the tragedy.
