Blaster Worm
Did anyone get that blaster worm virus? I did, and it was a pain to get rid of.

I had it. Fixed a bunch of other people's computer's too. It's not that bad to get rid of. Just install a patch, and stop the program from the task manager to delete any remnants.

By being connected to the internet. The worm travels through the internet, and infects people's computers, but it doesn't infect the computer and cause it to crash like a virus does. It just causes it to keep shutting down.

We got it at work tonight! But the systems people contained it before it caused any real mayhem. We had to all log off and then log back on and the patch was installed.

it was rather easy to get rid off... and if you check the coding, its a rather primative virus for something that would caused this problem. in other words... this is just a beta for of the real thing. someone is out there testing his new toy so theres nothing to do but sit and wait...

Yeah, I kind of wondered about that because it didn't really cause any damage or even cripple the system, it just kept making people log off and stuff. They probably can figure out a way to get around the patch, too..
