:-)

I think it is proportional.  We had 1 linux dedicated server customer rooted
in the last 2 months (they didn't patch) and over 2000 win2k dedicated
servers done in last night :-)  We had a similar number of win2k clients
affected by the last worm.  (As these are dedicated servers it is the
clients responsibility to patch etc. just as in colo. so it isn't our fault
btw.)

will.
