Thanks to all who responded

Just a few remarks:

Referring to the 'tons of links on http://www.microsoft.com/security', not all 
the tons of link are related to RPC over HTTP

What I really wanted to know is 'How secure is RPC over HTTP TECHNOLOGY'?

Is this setup similar to allowing RPC access through port 80 and 443 INSTEAD OF 
135, 445... ?

If this is the case, then vulnerabilities like the RPC DCOM could well be 
exploited... and what of future vulnerabilities...

So is RPC over HTTP equivalent as if we are opening ports 139, 445 to the 
server?

thanks all
