RE: [FW1] The information for users Firewall-1 for NT (complex ho tfix v6.23).

[David.R.Oslager@FW1-NOSPAMBakerNet.com]

sorry, but i have to 100% agree with matthew. when it comes to hotfixes and
service packs, if i didn't download it from microsoft, i'm not going to
trust it.

where on MS's web pages is this hotfix listed? i just checked the premier
support page, and i didn't find anything specific to a post sp6 hotfix
rollup package.

????

Hi!

File POSTSP6HOTFIX23.EXE - ZipSelfExtract and does not contain secrets for
users :-)

The file contains corrections only for core OS.

And 23(!) times to reboot a computer? ;-)
