I got a server running 2k/SP3. I cant install the new patches for this
month ..telling me i need SP4 to install updates. Im kinda low on space so
SP4 would be a pain to install. Am i still vulvernable? *stupid
question* in know

Thanks gents

Of course you are still vulnerable. And, if your server is part of a
network, you're even more vulnerable. Blocking 139/445 will help, but it is
not a sure safeguard.
