    Thanks Guillaume I must of not entered the right search word. But perhaps some of the links I posted are new.
    Out of the other post, which one is the best to follow for stopping or fixing the problem and does anyone know what the threat does to your comp?

    the hexblog hotfix should work since microsoft are not gonna patch it until the 10th of jan.

    this basically allows for malicious code to be run on your system so it can do anything from install a trojan to format your hard drive.

    you should be safe but remove it when the offical patch arrives and use that.

    guess we will have to wait for black tuesday for that.

    Would this threat make so your comp wont stay on and keeps shutting itself down? My nieces comp is doing this and its almost acts like the sassor worm or msblaster, but she has the patch for that.
    she cant stay on long enough to even run avg.
