I'm very surprised I got hit by this. I never open attachments or install weird programs. I'm not behind my firewall right now because of my temp dialup, but I'm still clueless as to how I got hit. Scanning and going through the cleanup process now.

yeah this worm messed up alot of computers here in calgary we signed in 60 or so computers today and expect anouther 500 before the end of the week ,,
it really shows that when microsoft says its critical update (they mean it )
just to let you guys know you dont have to format and the fix is pretty easy ..
