They use a way of getting a signature that is encrypted and is very specific to a program, and are so specific that you will get to tell them to let you use IE once after you upgrade it or security patch it also, ditto your anitvirus program one time after you update the program itself (virus def files do not count as they are not built into program and the two firewalls I mentioned are simple executable access control to and from your box programs). Firewalls that check outbound from you traffic as well as incoming traffic will show you if you might have a problem by telling you unusual programs trying to use the Internet after you tell them to let you use the ones you know are decent. If you do not have one and have a CPU with more than 1 GIG speed you should given this climate have both an antivirus(Trend Micro's PC-Cillin is good, so is Norton Anvitvirus from Symantec) and a Firewall like Tiny Personal or (better) Sygate (Personal and free) in version 5.0 and up. This virus comes in through IRC, is IRCbot spread, acts somewhat like Blaster except besides how it spreads, and DOES affect Windows 98 and 98SE as well as soem computers with 2000 and XP. Look at Symantec for this virus if you have problems in a few more days that are widespread for MANY sites: So, you might get noise as Blaster probes if you surf to places with sites on Server 2003 servers although your end is not affected. Some ISPs might have issues on their servers if they have Server 2003. What Blaster does is this- it generates large amounts of internet network noise. ive logged on using a different server and its still the same.Īs you can probably notice, in not that computer literate:), and if anyone knows whats going on id be very grateful Ive contacted my server, and they say its a hardware problem. also switching between open sites takes an eternity. id type a sentence, then watch the cursor move painstakingly slow across the screen, before what ive typed fianlly comes up. it's at its worst when i type messages on forums or web site based emails, like yahoo and hotmail.

once im actually in the site, it slows gown to a snails pace. It opens my homepage fine, as well as opening sites. Ive also run numerous 'patches" which tell me i dont have the worm, but the symptoms are just too similar to what it did to other computers.īasically it shuts the computer down once in a while, and it takes a while before i can reboot. i first noticed it when i logged on and had a different homepage to my usual one the thing is ive got window 98, and ive been told it doesnt affect 98. Ive been having severe computer trouble since when this blast worm thing hit on the 14 th of august.
