If you already are infected, the virus blocks attempts to do the windows
update.  If you go to symantec.com you can download a free program to get
rid of it.

The best thing to do is to go to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ and
install all the "Critical Updates". Whether you have W95/98/NT/2k/XP/2k3
it does not matter.

Just a heads up...

There is a new worm virus going around (which I just got last night )
called MSBlaster. My latest updated virus software missed it. Thankfully
it's easily removed.

Read about it at:
http://www.cnn.com/2003/TECH/internet/08/12/windows.worm/index.html

If you notice your system locking up or "acting funny", look in your
Task Manager/Processes for the MSblaster process.
