Security: WINS Replication Blocker Script

MS has posted a script that will allow netadmins to work around the new WINS security vulnerability…

This script accomplishes this by creating an IPSec policy with two filter rules that:
1. Block inbound packets destined for TCP or UDP port 42 from any host
2. Block outbound packets destined for TCP or UDP port 42 to any host

Note that this only works with Windows 2000/2003 based systems…

Ooops… I forgot the link… Click Here

(this brings back memories from the early 2000/2001 when I used to use IPSec to firewall my machines…)
