We're not dealing with sysadmins. In the most part it's home users who bought shady computers with a slightly unsuitable OS on it, they're probably slightly puzzled why their computer's running a bit slow but these thngs happen under windows. Also there's a bucket load of dodgy licences in the third world and these guys can't get the patch because they can't register, It's a mess of MS's making but it's all getting horribly complicated. But make no mistake, most of the unpatched boxes have users, not sysadmins.
