Vulnerability Development: Re: Naptha - New DoS

Well, most dial up users don't have a firewall between them and the rest of
the world. Even those  script kiddies scanning our firewalls at the office
seem to have port 139 open :).

I personally don't have a firewall for my Windows 95 PC at home. I just
removed Microsoft's Client and updated the IP stack, and so far it's taken
most stuff I've thrown at it.

Cheerio,
