        Owch.. Yep.. looks like it's both dynamic (i.e. port 1031
isn't always the port it ends up on) and it's used in more than just
that.  The box I tried it on first was pretty stock.  I tried it on a
loaded up box (Exchange and Winframe 3.51) and there are *lots* of
ports that little perl script kills it on.  Good thing I have an
extremely anal-retentive packet filter in front of that one :-)

        So it looks like all you need to is use that perl script (or
modify Proff's strobe program to heave something at the port when it
connects) and lots of things hardloop.  Sorry kids, it's not another static
port, It's all over the place int MS's code. so it depends what you run
on your server.

        The released microsoft fix does *NOT* fix this. it ONLY fixes
the problem on port 135.
