Exchange 2000 enables remote registry access

Microsoft released MS02-00 ("Exchange 2000 enables remote registry
access"). The Exchange 2000 System Attendant incorrectly gives
'Everyone' access to the Winreg registry key, which would allow a
remote attacker to access the registry via SMB/NetBIOS. Exploitation
depends on the permissions of the various subkeys.
