Hi Ron,
You're the only person I receive KR posts from. Do you know how I can

Thanks, Doug Peyton.

Here is one important message.
Virus Alert: How sassy is the Sasser worm?
Sassy enough so that if you do get infected, you're in for some repeated
computer reboots. If you run Windows XP or 2000, I'm urging you to get
Windows' critical patches, update those antivirus definitions, and get a
firewall up ASAP, because a newly discovered Internet worm called w32/Sasser
and its variants are making the rounds, infecting more home computers than
business ones. Unlike viruses that spread through e-mail, this worm finds
its way into computers through the Internet by seeking out vulnerabilities
in unpatched Windows machines, then releasing its payload. The payload
exploits a particular component of Windows that then causes the computer to
repeatedly reboot. So if you've unfortunately come across this worm, check
out the update from Microsoft and visit our Virus and Security Alerts forum
for up-to-date announcements on this virus and its variants. And while
you're checking things out, here's another great article by Robert Vamosi,
CNET senior associate edito!
r, in which he explains how he figures out when a worm will hit next.
