"The FBI's National Infrastructure Protection Center has urged users of
Microsoft's Windows XP operating system to disable a feature that could
leave computers open to attacks from hackers. In a statement issued
Saturday, the FBI's NIPC, which usually leaves computer security warnings to
the private sector, said it held technical discussions with Microsoft and
other industry experts Friday to identify ways to minimize the risk from
security holes in the XP software, which was launched in late October"
