Here comes the good part - since the DAT releases usually comes around 18-19 in the evening here, and the 'fix' was released five to six hours after that it shouldn't have been a problem if my co-workers have set the epo to update at night time, and depending on the time they've put on the agent to pull/check for updates.

And since I haven't heard anything from 'em about it, I do hope that all our customers managed to escape from this..
