without having to read through all of this again, what exactly was the patch for?

**Icey** · 08-11-2003, 11:08 PM

i think this is the problem

W32.Blaster.Worm is a worm that will exploit the DCOM RPC vulnerability using TCP port 135. It will attempt to download and run a file, msblast.exe.

is it a worm

Yep, metro. It's located in a lot of software files these days.
System 32 is the vunerable one.

If you use the link I used earlier (which was originally supplied by Paul) for a virus scan, it can do the work for you.
Kazaa is full of worms these days. I'm scared.
