Since       Louis is going directly from        one system to the other over Ethernet, that doesn't have a security risk for       the Windows 7 system. However, if he has it on the Internet (which it may be       through its main NIC) with SMB1, that is a risk without a good firewall.       >              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
