Subject: TCP Port 42 port scans?  What the heck over...

Port 42 is WINS.EXE - there are at least 3 exploits circulating for it 
that I know of... For more information, check the advisory on our 
website which has detailed technical information. Currently, the only 
real solution is to disable the service.
