texte = Actually, the name of the virus is Nimda. For those of you who don't see thejoke, that's Admin spelled backwards. This virus was completely preventable!Every trick it exploits has been separately patched by Microsoft at somepoint in the past. Patches for Windows Nt/2000, Patches for IE 5x and above,patches for ME email products.Now, it's the ADMIN's responsibility to keep up to date on all of thesepatches and make sure they are applied! (otherwise you would have to expectbetter software from the company you are supporting, but, whoops- uh, that'sa different tangent...)Can you now wait for Norton to release a SINGLE patch to do your job foryou? Don't know if they will. Viruses typically work by altering (readchanging and deleting files) on the host machine. No, instead, all of thepreviously known patches must be applied to these systems. Even then, yoursystem probably won't be the same as it was before.This episode is one case when an ounce of prevention is worth a pound ofcure (even if in MS's case, it's 7/8 pound of prevention)So, back to your jobs, hopefully in the next few days the entire internetshould have FINALLY applied all of the know patches MS has released to date.Brian B.
