A friend got hit by the worm yesterday. No Anti Virus prog installed, uses dial-up conn. (no firewall). Tried to install NAV and Mc Afee, virus was deleting files as they were being installed! Both were ended while installing, then nothing. This is a baddie! Next, I'm going to put his HDD in my machine and then scan it. Just updated my virus defs (NAV) and installed MS patch for RPC problem.
