a Windows xp virus was found in the net. it attacked my computer so i cant use the internet! (i just found out my mom has 2000 so its safe to use :) ) a warning to all who use xp find a virus protecting software like norton as soon as you can to protect yourself! if not... you may not be able to use the internet anymore!

Well, except that it\'s a worm and it affects all versions of Windows. You\'re not safe.

If I can clarify: this virus affects Windows NT4, Windows 2000 and Windows XP. Windows 95 and 98 aren\'t affected, since they don\'t have the components targetted by this worm.

well well, the worm, I heard about it just this morning, now here. I have a 98, pretty slow but a souped up every thing, but I still got a 56k....my video card make up for that.......I also heard that when downloading the windows patch for the bug, they also installed \"the worm\" into webpage (somehow) when you visite the site you will get the newer versions of \"the worm\" and the patch won\'t work
so use a firewall and pay for it if you can, those are better

[font=comic sans ms]I have no worries, myself, even though I use XP.

We have multiple firewalls and a coupla virus protectors like Norton and the like. I think we\'re pretty much gotten this thing beat. :P

However, my Gram\'s CPU is acting funny...after about ten minutes on the Net, it says that the Compy needs to shut itself down, which scares the hell outta me....DAMMIT here it goes again...

Any answers to this enigma, wrapped in a query, dipped in confusion sauce?

20 seconds left, gotta go! :lol:[/font]


Reality swirled in a wholly blue manner, revealing absolutely nothing of merit. Things flashed madly in and out of existence like some entirely other sort of phenomena. On a whim, Kurt Vonnegut imploded, taking a sizeable hunk of Massachusetts with him. However, seeing as Massachusetts wasn't entirely sure it existed, the chunk wasn't all that big.

Awesome! It worked! I\'m back on good ol\' Icedesk (my computer;D)

I have Notron Antivirus and all that stuff, and I still got it...don\'t consider yourself too safe.

Fixing it was a pain though, on my fifth attempt I got it though...

Hmmm, my CD rom still isn\'t reading well...

You know, that\'s exactly what that latest worm is about: restarting the computer at random.

I don\'t think virus software will work. Correct me if I\'m wrong, but worms don\'t contain the components that virus software detectes and destroys. The only protection is a patch, firewall, or not having new versions of windows. Anyway, this worm is pretty much dead, now that the patch is readily available to the public.
