Wouldn't that be great if they replaced them.....
 
Chances are that it was on a Windows server. There was a very critical patch that came down the wire yesterday and had to be installed as soon as possible. I had to apply it and reboot three of my own servers that are accessed by the internet and several more that are just in our company.
