A new worm has been identified that could allow an attacker to remotely compromise a computer running Microsoft Windows. This worm spreads by exploiting a recent vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. "
My PC got hit with this today. Nasty Nasty Nasty piece of work. It has taken me most of the day to sort it out because of other issues I happened to be doing immediately before it hit (ie cleaning out registry)
If you are running windows I really recommend you get the patch before you get the virus. it keeps causing windows to reboot.
heres the details
