Additional vulnerabilities surface in SP2 

In addition to weaknesses in SP2's new Windows Firewall that 
allow malicious code to "phone home", reprogram the firewall's 
rules, or turn the firewall off altogether, security researchers 
have discovered  vulnerabilities in a newly added security feature 
designed to prevent the inadvertent launch of malicious e-mail 
attachments. While both German company Heise Security  and Microsoft 
agree that the problems are minor, researchers predict more critical 
issues will emerge.
