...is really taking a turn for the worst. Not only it did infect the home PC, but it does prevent you from getting to certain important sites to get rid of it. The last two days, i had to disinfect two PC and also to fix my own PC because of of the windows update, while i was infected went very wrong on me (Hopefully i made a restore point).
It is virtually impossible to do the automatic update for AVG. One of the computer i disinfected, had a 200+ contact list, so it's taskmon.exe was sending e-mail at a furious pace, making it hard to disinfect (I had to reset and caught it at startup). This thing is spreading at the speed of light. Hopefully MS will do something soon on the main net servers. This is wild! I also had a tentative of intrusion that my firewall detected coming from a software with the idoom sig. So it's not just an e-mail virus. Someone is trying to do something else with it. Nothing positive, i am sure...
Now the virus as changed the "unicode" message to a "server error". For those who liked to remove that crap:
