Good news. I just found out what virus I have. I have the Sasser Worm (A new virus that doesn’t come by email). Bad News. Nothing to fix it[:(]
I have the virus that affects my keyboard and makes me type all funny like…uh-oh ist comihfbjmhnz dhj v sdbjUgv
OK now on the serious side.
If you have E-mail that looks like this don’t open it… DO NOT~!!
From: anybody@hotmail.com or anywhere.com
Subject: Mail Failure Delivery, Mail Deamon, Mail failure Deamon, etc…
Do not open messages that have a weird address and are titled “MAIL FAILURE” etc…
Crap i’ve opened a few of those becuase i sent pics and the file was to large and gt sent back to me
try this link to remove that bloody thing

The download doesn’t work. [:(!]
Better advice yet, just click EMPTY on Hotmail and get rid of them sun of a guns without even opening 'em!
Well Sasser doesn’t come via email. From what I’ve read it just pops up and there’s nothing you can do
It’s got to get there somehow. Isn’t there a Microsoft forum some where that you may find some help? When I have trouble with my Mac, (which is almost never!) I go to Apple’s web site and sign into the forums and there are people there paid by Apple to help you. Microsoft should have something like that. What about Norton or McAfee virus software? Well good luck!
Dougal, I found this site for you.

Windows XP has some mighty big holes in it’s software. HaXoRs have learned to use this to their advantage. Make sure your windows are updated, as microsoft makes patches for it often.
