Re: NFC: worms ...the wrong kind



Well folks, it seems I got a nice little worm this morning and seem to have
caught it in time to not do any real damage. Apologies to all it sent itself
to from me but I am clean once again thanks to the norton/symantec fixit
tool.
it was a worm called   W32.Badtrans.B....  I downloaded a removal tool from
this site and it did a good job of removal .. IF you got the worm I would
highly reccomend this to remove it from your machine.... Apologies to all
for the lack of FISH content but after the past weeks ORDEAL I dont think I
am too far outta line.
