Update you windows operating system / browser

I got hit around 2 pm yesterday. This worm goes into your computer through your browser. It comes up with a screen and reboots you computer. It is real pain. It shut down Maryland Department of Motor Vehicles. It was announced on CNBC today. It might not be husbandry of pythons but I could not post because of system crashes. Hope this heads up helps you folks before you get it! NO HOAX!

Between computer and phone calling yesterday gee!!!!!

If you had practiced propper husbandry of you computer this would never of happened. LOL!! I got hit yesterday too, and I had to hide behind a router to download that patch. There was no effect if you were behind a router, but the patch does fix it. ms03-026 (another name of the file you hosted)
