Recently I have seen a lot of newspaper articles warning about the new "MSblaster" worm. They say that it uses a denial of service attack mode. Once it installs itself on your system it causes the system to crash and makes it difficult for you to get any work done. In what way is this different from a normal Microsoft product? mostly just curious - Dan Strick strick@covad.net
