rate3 Appeared on my PC for no known reason   S Anscombe
rate5 The Blaster worm. Without the security patch from Microsoft, this virus can install itself just by you being connected to the Internet (you don't need to do anything to get it).  See also: Link   Inuyasha
rate5 Virus   Mark Osude
rate5 When I connect online this dumb worm reboots my computer.   Wilton
rate5 This file termninates the RPC in the Windows XP. Resulting a system crash and imediate restart.  
rate4 This program uses some shady techniques such as code hiding and encryption to make it less obvious, and unreadable, and appears to autodial to other computers and to other ports on the current computer. Also the file contains the following text "mslaugh.exeI dedicate this p¢²ÀÝartu r straino m~+²+ANG3L - hopyeenjoy ¦ ¦gself andKont forge¯¦¥¦tN(promTeDBi¦¯²/DAY !"   Jonathan Rennison

rate5 It seems that it's possible to disable it from MSConfig, in the "Startup" tab.   Name Not Supplied
rate5 To remove mslaugh.exe load winXP, press Ctrl+Alt+Del and terminate the mslaugh.exe procedure. Then run msconfig to disable mslaugh.exe. Finally go to Start - Search and write mslaugh.* to find and delete all. Reboot your PC and it is OK (most of the times). It also works for msblast.exe and others. And something else: Install a firewall program like Zonealarm (freeware). Don't count on windows firewall except if you have done all the updates (e.g. SP2). Zonealarm is better though.   Manolis Greece
rate5 The worm appeared during WindowsUpdate of sp1   foofoo

rate3 Why do people bother! It loads into the registry - hkeyLM/software/microsoft/windows/curentversion/run   Robert
rate4 It causes errors and unexpected shutdowns   Anonymous
rate5 Just to a "shutdown -a" to stop the shutdown while you remove it  
rate0 sounds alot like one that once infected my computer, mine was called msblast.exe i found it through windows search. killed it by deactivating it in task manager then quickly deleting it before it launched itself again. it will give you approximately 5-10 seconds to delete it before it re-launches. likes to shutdown the computer alot.   MICK FROM AUSTRALIA
rate4 When u get the RPC error that shuts ur comp after 60 secs, type shutdown -a in start run. This supresses shutdown of ur comp. save ur files. reboot, and update ur system with patch.   Pau
rate0 another name for msblast, very dangerous   james
rate0 The Blaster Worm. Executes "shutdown.exe" with a 60 second timeout when connecting to the internet. Download the Norton exe file from www.norton.com  See also: Link   *Don

rate5 Deletes system files that lead the computer to malfunction. It appears that this worm replaces the RPC Service because after infection the service is not recognized anymore as MS-Windows Service (see: MSConfig)   gigiga
