Worm.

I check daily for Windows updates on my machines. Also each PC has some sort of firewall and antivirus program to protect it. Luckly I havent seen it myself. Seen a few people moaning about them having it though. Ill see it soon enough, customers never listen to me when I remind them about the dangers of today's virus'.

I was more impressed with the NetSky virus which claimed to be a fix tool for the sasser virus.

I went to install ADSL for someone the other day. She asked if I had any problems with the virus; I said no as I hadnt seen it yet although its only a matter of time. Shortly after I installed AntiVirus for her and found Sasser and some other backdoor virus.
