This virus is amazing in how easy it is to catch. Yesterday I was just finished putting together a new system, and was installing W2K. My computer kept getting an RPC error and shutting down. I tried everything to fix it. (i never once had even enough time to install a single critical-up date), so I would end up reinstalling W2K (did that 3 times). Then during the 3rd install I read about the virus on another computer that was there. I was curious, so right after the install I opened search and looked for MSBLAST. Nothing. Ok, so about 2 min into installing service pack 4 and I get RPC error. I do search on my system and sure enough, MSBLAST.
I have never seen (i have heard/read though) a virus that infects a system before you have downloaded ANYTHING.
I hate to give this guy/gal any credit but whoever is responsible for this huge pain in the arse, is one smart cookie.
