Workarounds Released for XP SP2 Flaw

Having mentioned this a couple of times already, apparently Microsoft has a workaround....

Ryan Naraine writes in eWeek:

The Microsoft Security Response Center late Saturday released a security advisory to offer pre-patch workarounds for a denial-of-service flaw in Windows XP Service Pack 2.

The company's advisory follows the public disclosure of the vulnerability in Remote Desktop Services, a feature that allows XP users to remotely control computers from another office, from home or while traveling.

However, Microsoft is adamant that the flaw is not as serious as some researchers are making it out to be.
