How do I get the patch for the infamous worm that
everyone is talking about. I go to the update center and
there is no mention of what patch is needed. I was really
suprised.

If you are having trouble staying up.
When the shutdown prompt appears,go to start/run and type
shutdown -a to abort the shutdown process to allow you to stay up and
online.

There are 2 more variants out now.
The exes for the variants are teekids.exe and penis32.exe
Kelly's script kills all 3 variants.
