    OK OK....I know I'm probably getting all worked up over nothing, but I'm so ##### mad right now that I'm going to shoot that worm right out of there! I think it's hiding in my restore computer files and I used the tool to remove the SasserB.worm and it said it was removed succesfully. Wrong! Everytime I turn on the computer the worm turns off my Norton Anti-virus protection. Has anybody had this problem??? I hate computers

    Throw the dammed thing out the window and have a beer or a glass of wine. That's what I usually do when my computer dies....

    My parents got it and had to wipe out windoze..... LOL! They had no anti=virus software or anything, though..... so they pretty much had to.

    What the hell am I typing here?

    Short summary of what you need to do... boot up in safe mode, run a virus removal tool, turn on your firewall, then get back online and run Windows Update.

    No one should be using a computer without a firewall or antivirus software.

    I hope this will not be your problem but i know of two people that have to replace their hard drive. This virus has gone past many firewalls and Norton.
