Almost every time I update our border ingress ACL (which removes the ACL
for as long as it takes to load the new one, perhaps a few seconds) it
triggers IDS alerts on 1433/1434, often specifically the slammer packet
itself. (usually thanks to AS209)
The SANS ISC currently gives an "Internet Survival Time" of 24 minutes
for an unpatched windows box. I would give an unpatched Windows server
with an old copy of MSSQL a considerably shorter lifespan :-)
