Blaster Worm FAQ
1. CTRL-ALT-DELETE to bring up the Task Manager. Look for msblast.exe and
select it and End Process. This will stop the computer from shutting down.
It doesn't remove the worm.
To enable your firewall :
- Click Start
- Click Control Panel
- Double Click "Network Connections"
- Right-click on your Dial up Connection, then left click 'Properties'
- Left Click 'Advanced' Under "Internet Connection Firewall" tick the box
'Protect my computer and networking by limiting or preventing access to this
computer from the internet'
- Click Ok and Close the "network connections" box.
You can then connect to the Internet and download the Microsoft relevant
patch.
You could also try:
Click Start/Run then type in cmd
and then type in : shutdown -a
Do this when the shutdown prompt appears.
2. You can download the Symantec Removal Tool from here
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.blaster.worm.removal.tool.html
or you can visit this site to assist in the removal of the worm
