Webmail has nothing to do with this. The worm which takes advantage of this vulnerability searches for computers which are still vulnerable (port 135). It does not give a **** if you don't even own single email address.

smash the cd with a hammer and count the shards. if it's closer to 32, you have a windows xp 32 bit.

You have 32bit Windows...

If you'd have 64bit, you'd know it. :rolleyes:

Okay I have the same problem. Could someone post a patch/fix for this before my parents reformat the hard drive on the computer? (They think they have MSblast)

There's an automatic remover over at Symantec.

I posted links in the thread about msblast, quick and easy download to remove it and set up the patch to prevent it.
