Is the worm real?

Recommended Posts

I guess we'll find out! I'm loaded with the most up-to-date security software on my computer, but hell, I might just leave the modem unplugged tomorrow. I can still use my crackberry. :P

Apparently, my computer was infected with a worm, and it reared its ugly head today. Hence my lateness in getting started on my postwhoring today.

I realize now that this worm probably shut down all my previous attempts to type in "AVG" in my IE search box and cut off all attempts to install "AVG" once I got it in my computer via email.

I simply checked Microsoft's download center for any updates I needed, found one, downloaded and installed it, then ran my PC SpyDoctor scan, and oh boy, the history list showed many many attempts to send info out of my computer by a worm that were blocked by Spy Doctor. I had the little fuckers quarantined and eradicated.

Clean bill of health now. :)

Info from Microsoft.

I read in the paper today that if you can't access a Microsoft site while using IE, then you might have the worm on your computer.
