MySQL problems?

Sorry , didn't know where else to post this,

Slinky,

FYI...
I came across a couple of articles concerning MySQL worms/viruses.
The possible vunerability is a weak Admin passwd.

As far as I know it is only effecting servers running windows. UNIX environments should be ok. (Barring that the MySQL port is not open to the world)

I know this doesn't really belong here but figured I had to answer in case anybody was worried.
