I just got infected with a new worm today and am still trying to get rid of it.

It redirects you to safetydefender.com

I am pretty sure it came in thru IE, but I was only using Firefox at the time so I don't know.

Just thought I would post a warning to everyone.

Norton, Ad-aware, Spybot

I have since added Spywareblaster to keep ActiveX from running.

I am sorry, I don't know what rev means.

Rev = version; sorry. Oh, well, I don't use Norton, anyway.

Dump the Norton when it comes time for renewal and go with NOD32. I'm SO loving it. I barely know it's running, even when it's doing a scan (compared to Norton which slowed everything to a crawl). They also really keep up on the updates. I think on either Tues. or Wed. it had at least 4 updates.
