Storm Worm Erupts Into Worst Virus Attack in 2 Years

Just in case you missed it, there is a new virus making the rounds with the sole purpose of building up a huge botnet. Make sure that virus software is updated and auto scanning.

"We are basically in the midst of an incredibly large attack," said Adam Swidler, a senior manager with security company Postini. "It's the most sustained attack that we've seen. There's been nine to 10 days straight days of attack at this level."
