sequel to blaster worm
In article , Franz Heymann notfranz.

In view of the fact that there is a virus doing the rounds, (it tries to
attack me on average 1.5 times daily) which purports to come from Microsoft
and which includes an attachment which is said to cure something or other,
I will not avail myself of this advice, however good it might be, until I
hear from others who are brave enough to follow it.
The message to which I referred was a notice from Microsoft distributed
for them by Demon - and probably other ISPs. The URL gives direct access
to MS Windows Update where the patch can be downloaded and installed by
MS users. Its purpose is to protect against new developments of the
blaster worm. Uninvited e-mails purporting to be from Microsoft should
be deleted without opening.
