Question/problem for internet networking doods

So was I. :lol:

If you can't laugh about viruses, you'd cry !!!

All these new macro viruses / worms are a piece of junk ! Remember the old DOS days ? Die Hard 2 took me something like 2 weeks to clean up completely, it just attached to every exe file !
And remember the good old TSR (Terminate and Stay Resident) virii ? those were painful ! hehe boy I miss the old days.

Yes, they just test your patience.

We were hit with Code Red, Code Red II, and Nimda - all in about a month. We never did clean them off completely. You just kind of sluff it off after a while and say "Oh well, tomorrow is another day"!!! :roll:

Some people I know have seen so many Code Red / Nimda traffic packet dumps that they just look at the hex and they go 'oh theres some Nimda' lol..

For those who've never seen what a worm looks like when its squigling around
