This is a small snippet of C code that exploits one BigBro's many back
doors put in Windows OS's.  I run Linux as my network server and
firewall between my Win95 box and the internet.  I've had people try
to access various ports on my Win95 box, but the Linux box blocks
their access and logs the attempts to a file.  For those who want
security, check out Linux at http://www.linux.org.  It's a FREE unix
OS available on the net including ALL source code.
