SasserWorms guys?!

Well it has been a very long time since the first appearance of the pesky sasser worm that infected most of the Windows Xp ran PCs... and i must admit this type of worm is a bit hard to wipe out of your HDD (hard drive) ones it got it....

Lately in a Forum site that i often visit (tristan cafe) , i saw a very interesting post by one of the members it goes something like this...

"help po ...san po me pwede magdownload ng virus remover for lsasse.exe...evry 5mins po turn off pc ko..bcoz of dis virus..
thanks po..."

i thought it was very interesting because sasser is not a very big problem nowadays especially the newer XP systems, but i guess not all users are aware of the "simple" ways to avoid these things rom going in your PC. So, I replied on this post...

"hmm... i never thought that some users still get infected by that stupid worm... well most of        the time the one's who get infected by the Sasser worm are XP users and most likely the ones        who still doesn't have the patches and latest sevice packs installed like SP2.

well first of all you've got to have an updated anti-virus in your pc. then you need to boot your        machine in "safe mode" i hope you know how to do that.
and then make a full virus scan of your hard drives.

if this does not work decide if you'd want your pc to be reformated and if not then you go to             the nearest PC technician in your area get your HDD fix and cleaned."

one tip:

always update your antivirus and make sure that you have a very dependable firewall installed     in your system.

good luck

Pretty simple right?

actually all that you would need in your PC so that you'll have a better security is the following:

A Firewall
Antivirus
Anti-spyware
Service packs or OS (operating system) Updates and Security Patches.

and never to forget to update your virus and spyware definitions!!!
