    Something I never even had the ability to imagine has happened; a vulnerability in the virus sasser has been found and is being actively exploited by another virus. "Dabber" Which in turn removes serveral viruses and then installs it's own backdoor into the computer.

    Did I mention it is a good idea to keep you systems updated?

    WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ive only had 1 virus ever, but this is just getting out of hand. My father, who has never turned a computer on in his life, warned me about the sasser worm. I almost crapped my trousers.
