Great minds think alike, eh?

Yes, this is it.

It won't affect you if you have firewall, as long as you don't accept it.

Little attention? This worm has been all over the major news stations, as well as every single blog and website out there.

You have to be living under a rock if you haven't heard of it yet.

I was going to post it, but figured not to, considering there are other threads with the removal technique. Another fresh one won't hurt!

None of the threads I had a look at here at GFY did have complete removal instructions... however I didn't not look at all of them

As you said, better to post that once more than 1 time to few!
