I respectfully disagree. I have a embedded multi-threaded 'C' program running in over 11k+ retail stores in the USA right now. It's been handling multiple client requests to a Sqlite DB since 2007 without any issues. This product has made my company a lot of revenue. The secret to using threads is all in the design. Don't share resources between threads (I only had one shared resource for 50+ threads guarded by a semaphore).
Cheers.

Has anyone read any article on how this vulnerability is spreading via SMB V1? With the Robert Morris worm/I Love you/Conficker we knew exactly how the worm spread.
From a programmers perspective, what is this thing doing? Is there an nmap filter to find vulnerable clients yet? If not, how do I create one. I'd like to be pro-active with my current customers concerns.
Thanks,
