If you connect windows 2000 to the internet, you're probably owned within a few minutes regardless. Similarly for xp pre-sp2.

What? Can you elaborate? If I spin this up in a container, even though it has access to the internet, how am I owned within a few minutes, given that my firewall is in place and I don't expose any port of this container to the internet?

Software evolves. This means that new software needs new libraries. Will be interesting if someone tries new exploits on old software.
