That's not the worm going around...I'm trying to figure out what synhost.exe is...



The worm that's going around is called W32.Blaster.worm.

there is a patch out for the worm to prevent.....if you have it already a mcaffe command prompt scan with updated dat files from mcaffe should clean it but i'm not sure havn't tested and havn't had to fix it yet.





and are you sure it wasn't saying svchost.exe ???

Genetic diversity is a wonderful thing. The lack of it is why we don't condone the copulation of hillbilly brothers and sisters and parents and cousins.



Just think of Windows as the bastard offspring of Bill Gates diddling his Mom, and you'll understand why Microsuck products are so prone to these failings.
