Re: Attempted Intrusion "MS ASN1 Integer Overflow TCP"

Important As of May 2004, the most current versions of the files that are listed in this article (828028) are available in MS04-011:
835732 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/835732/) MS04-011: Security update for Microsoft Windows

Microsoft Security Bulletin MS04-011
Security Update for Microsoft Windows (835732)
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms04-011.mspx

Neither XP SP2 nor Vista are listed under Affected software.
Nor are they listed on the Symantec page:
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/attack_sigs/s20409.html

HOWEVER, there are 3rd party softwares listed that *are* vulnerable and are listed in the Symantec article. And, the version of NAV that is installed is * outdated *.

*** The system is being attacked because * 3rd party * software is vulnerable. ***
So, the question begs, have you kept *3rd party* software updated ?

For no-charge assistance with an exploited, compromised system:

I have the same probem.

According to the website ( http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/attack_sigs/s20409.html) users are strongly advised to obtain fixes as soon as possible with a patch.

The only problem is there don't seem to be one for Microsoft Windows Vista Home P. So, how do I fix it for the Vista program?

How come my computer suddenly is continuisly attacked by this now everytime I go online? Can I prevent this from happening? Will the attacks disappear after a while? (and I don't mean shutting the notifications down; will it attack my computer for ever now?)

How do I prevent this kind of attacks? Is there websites should you avoid at all cost (forums, yahoo..and so on)?
