A firewall (especially a hardware firewall) helps ALOT against worms like blaster or sasser. Never got neither blaster or sasser on our computers (LAN with 3 pc computers). Also a good antivirus software helps alot like Norton Antivirus 2003/2004, Norman Antivirus, Kasperlabsky, Mcafee or other popular antivirus products THAT ARE ACTUALLY UPDATED!!!

Norton doesn't work on my win98.

The only viruses I've ever gotten were through email, and I delete them before opening, although my family doesn't(so we have anti-virus).

Linksys routers keep almost everything out. Even game connections, etc., unless you know the ports.

I'm using Windows XP here. I just downloaded and installed AVG. I updated its definitions and ran a virus-scan. The Sasser Worm isn't on my computer so far.

And about your screenshot: It could have been a variant of the Sasser Worm that was designed to hide from Microsoft's online detection system.

And I don't hate Microsoft. I like Microsoft WAY better than Crapple Computer.

Norton sucks, for sasser, it removes the windows system files instead of removing the infected part. So it screws your comp even more then before.

microsoft is totaly bullshit , nearly noone use the part of windows being affected

the easiest and best way to protect your computer is to totaly disable these thing

here is a website (in french but translated) to disable this disaster

http://www.systranbox.com/systran/box?systran_lp=fr_en&systran_id=SystranSoft-en&systran_url=http://www.serveurperso.com/?page=howto&systran_f=1084002839

(the translation is a little crap , waiter stand for server , sayable stand for disable, division stand for share ...)

btw: Cybermaze , your lan are already protected by default (except if you are forwarding bad port or have set up a DMZ server) , this is simply because of the TCP/IP protocol , the "listen" action is local , the rooter isn't aware of this , when a SYN packet (connection request) arrive , the rooter doesn't know where to forward the packet, if the port requested in on the Port Forwarding Table , he forward to the comp , overwise it block the packet

oh , and win98se rocks

Lol pete, Yeh i was infected, so was my brother.
I found Microsofts one didnt really work, try one from F-Security, then download http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms04-011.mspx
and run F-Securitys thing again. also Turn-off system restore!
most times the virus will still be there, so goto C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\ and delete all the files ending with "_up". then restart your PC and hopefully it will be fixed.

There's a better anti-virus system than any program you can download. It's called common sense

common sense doesn't restrict inbound port access or prevent loopholes being found in microsoft's coding

Ah, but common sense tells you to use a firewall and/or don't use Microsoft operating systems.
