MS haven't helped themselves by providing limited information in the kb article but this 'panic' really is being fuelled by misinformation and the usual MS bashing. :rolleyes:

I've no drama's with my WHS installation (so far) and don't expect I will now that I've read more about the problem.

well not really MS Bashing, most posts on /. are informative, if you digg around a bit:)

Wouldn't want to see a 2gb PST go corrupt because of this :/

Sorry, I didn't intend to single out /. but I was commenting on the general hysteria found on forums where this news has been posted.

True but if it is/was part of your normal nightly WHS back-up then there is no problem it seems.
