So how large of an impact are we looking at here for the average networked environment? I don't see this service running on any of our servers here,although the exe is most definitely there ... is this a subprocess that getsspawned as necessary to allow applications to communicate with the OS? Pardon my ignorance. Regards, Andrew Berges - Associate Manager, Systems Everest Global Services
To be honest, I don't think it's a very serious issue. MSMQ isn't terribly widely deployed, the bug has already been fixed for at least one SP, and it seems easy to filter at the border. AFAIR MSMQ isn't installed by default on w2k, not even server versions, so it's something that only people who have deliberately configured it into their systems will have running.
