W32.Blaster.Worm

This worm has a high distribution and a medium (who's measuring that?) damage rating. It causes your computer to crash (I'm hearing reports of crashes every 10 minutes) and it opens a remote cmd shell.

This worm enters your system through TCP Ports 135 & 4444 and UPD Port 69 - blocking these ports will greatly reduce your risk of infection.

Systems affected so far are Windows 2000 and Windows XP. Linux, Macintosh, OS/2, and Unix machines seem unaffected.

For anyone else who was annoyed with the AIM 5.2 Beta bugs, the 5.2 Final has been released and can be downloaded here. This version does work with DeadAIM 4.0, but you'll need to close AIM and run the repair tool.

GAAAAAHHH! There are moths all over the house! *swats them* I hate moths.

I want a new cellphone that can either download ringtones or has a ringtone composer. Because I'm a geek and want geeky ringtones. The Nokias are nifty... but none of them are coded for Verizon and I heard the reception on those suck anyway.

I should go to bed...
