Nasty New Worm for the New Year

There's a nasty new worm out there named W32.Downadup.B (symantec link here) that spreads in a large number of ways. The Symantec link describes it in detail, and has a great list of recommendations at the end of the posting.

Best ones are:
1. Don't open attachments unless you know what they are, who sent them and why!
2. Keep your anti-virus up to date ( and if you don't have one - get one- I'll help!)
3. Make sure your firewall is working

Have a great new year!
