Re: microsoft-ds question

I don't think it can be disabled. Use a firewall (either something like
ZoneAlarm or a router+firewall).

There are several worms trying to connect to port 445 and attempt a DOS
attack (exhausting kernel resources). Port 445 used by System is not a
problem - this is the way it should be.
