[RC] getting rid of the virus - Michael Maul

Do I need to do anything further? (like manually delete anything?) Should
>I download the patch from
>Microsoft?


Yes - you do need to download the patch. getting rid of this latest virus doesn't mean you have seen the last of it from my understanding of the writeup.

It's one that is not carried by email. Just connection to the internet without downloading any mail is sufficient to get it.

The patch from MS closes off the places(ports) where the outside system looks to deliver the worm.

I'm not an expert on this - this is from reading the antivirus company descriptions of the fix and how the worm works.

Mike
