Here are some feedback from people. Results vary wildly.

No:

Windows NT 4.0 SP3 ("kiborg" <contact () kiborg net>)
Windows NT 4.0 SP4 (Russ)
Windows NT 4.0 SP4 PWS 4.02.0622
Windows 2000 beta 2 ("John Sweeney" <quantium () mediaone net>)
Windows 98 (Sean Coates scoates () usa ne)

Yes:

Windows 95 ("kiborg" <contact () kiborg net>)
Windows 98 ("kiborg" <contact () kiborg net>)
Windows 98 + fixes & patches ("David Schwartz" <davids () webmaster com>)

Someone mentioned this may be the fault of FrontPage. It asks you to install PWS
when you install FP. It may be possible that FP is configuring PWS in such a way
to leave it open.
