MS05-051 Scan is intended for use by enterprise system and network administrators as a fast and reliable utility for identifying at risk Microsoft systems in a passive manner. This tool is non-abrasive in nature and may be run in production environments during production hours. Limitations of the tool:The scanner is limited to 10 outgoing connections on WIndows XP SP2.
