VIRUS WARNING!!! ALL MS OS USERS SHOULD READ!!!

I got hit with a stupid IRC virus recently. It's called Backdoor.IRC.Zcrew. If you already know about it, then great; if you don't, then this notice is for you. It's very easy to tell if you have this virus or not. I recommend for safety's sake you look for it and confirm you don't have it. Follow this Symantec link: http://securityresponse.symantec.com...irc.zcrew.html

It explains very clearly how to detect and rid yourself of the offensive bug.

1200 pc' s infected according to Fark. (search the archives).

Only caused me two weeks of 14 hr days /
it's got to be more than 1200 pc's infected. I've probably fixed about 400 pc's infected by the blaster worm

I work as tech support for a major OEM at the moment, and here is our fix, or one of them, for the blaster virus.


click start

run

type in services.msc then click ok

look for the 'remote proceedure call' icon in the list (not 'remote procedure call locator') and double click on it

click on the recovery tab

make sure first, second and subsequent failures all say 'take no action'

now you can connect to the internet without being kicked off your computer (which is one of the things the blaster worm does)

now go to symantec.com and follow the instructions for downloading the FixBlast.exe file and running it for w32.blaster.worm

at the end of running the fixblast.exe, you will be prompted to install the microsoft patch if you haven't done so already. Just installing the patch doesn't fix anything, it just kind of stops it.

Other than that, watch out for the other worms, such as the w32.welchia.worm

Also, these worms came in a MS update, so a firewall wouldn't have helped too much with getting them.

I work for a state agency and somehow we got the worm and it would tell us on our laptops that the rcp was not responding & that the system was shutting down. It caused disruption of our system for the whole weekend and finally at the begining of the work week they got it fixed.

if your format or re-image make sure you patch, or you will get it again :/

Thanks! Haven't had a chance to get the virus software on my new (secondhand) computer loaded. I have a decent firewall, though (and a flu shot which should take care of some viruses).
