Windows 7RC SMB2.0 Remote bluescreen

I Bluescreen a laptop running Windows 7 RC using an SMB2.0 poke of death. Details of how it actually works and how to do it can be found here:

Thing is, if *I* can copy this down off the web and do it in about 5 minutes, so can a lot of people who are far nastier than me. I'm no computer expert, I don't even understand exactly how it works (should be obvious from the video)... but all it needs is a quick copy and paste, point it at your target, then run it. Just plug in the IP address and fire.

It's worrying just how easy this is to do.

Apologies for the shite video quality, since I filmed it with my phone.

EDIT: It can be blocked by a Firewall/NAT, the machine I tested it on was running a firewall, but was connected to a network drive at the time.
