IIRC the last time I tried to use Cisco Works (a couple of years back)
there was a feature to check for Bugs in all IOSes used in a network
managed by Cisco Works. 

It always returned 0 Bugs.  I used Wireshark to troubleshoot this and
found out that CW was always trying to reach a specific website and the
server returned a 404.  

I know some people who would rely on the message by CW and who would
feel perfectly save.
