It must be getting bad. Charter just send a mass mailing about the worm and
specifically mention port 135.
I run an NT box at home and since day two it has not an email client nor does
RPC work, I disabled it to manual. I do get an event error at boot but NT does
not need re-booting much so it really is not a bother.
