Ah, but you are only measuring the total -number- of headaches.
If we are allowed to sum headache severities, then peered MS Exchange
Server (pre- Active Directory) must surely be a srong contender for
the title.

If you want to be strict and say that that's a product and not a
protocol, then surely by now with all the worms, netbios-ns (udp 137)
must be darn close if not in the lead.
