What is Microsoft doing to address backdoor TCP/IP access to Windows machines? BackOrifice and others caught many offguard, and they were benign in nature, relative to the havock that COULD have been unleashed by script kiddie type hackers. Is the approach just "Make windows 9x windows NT?"
Also, know of any Microsoft OS plans that will support Intel Itanium architecture? Is microsoft prepared for 64 bit processors, if/when they get here?
