Someone's been out of the loop for awhile...
By sending OOB (Out of Band) data to an NT server after connecting to port
139, you will get a BSOD.

Rest assured, though I am a high school 'kid', many more 'adults' know
about this problem, and MS supposedly fixed it with SP3. However, there was
a post-SP3 hotfix because Mac's could still crash the NT boxes.

See:

BTW/FYI, this was discovered nearly a month ago.
