Retina-Nimda Scanner detects Win9x as infected...

["Perlovsky, Boris" <perlovsky () cambridgeinnovations com>]

A scan with eEye's free Retina - Nimda Scanner on my network shows all
Windows 9x systems that have the "File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft
Networks" service installed on them as infected (Banner = Open Guest
Access).  Even though these systems have nothing shared out.  Once this
service is removed, the scan does not detect them.  The obvious conclusion
is that just by having that service on a system, (without actually sharing
anything) it is vulnerable to Nimda and other Trojan's.  Is that correct?
