Yay for buffer overruns!

Well done Ben, I have hardware and software firewalls and I've stopped RPC running anyway, but you cant be too careful can you?

I was under the impression that disabling RPC wasn't actually possible due to the way certain Windows componants work. Still it's pretty funny that pretty much everything that compromises Windows security involves overflowing a buffer, Even the Xbox suffers from this.
