Search your computer for the above,if its greater than 12Kish you may be infected, a new virus is going about started last night. affects 2000 and XP
File will be able to bypass a fire wall and all but the most upto date virus checker.....its the first virus every to make it past my works defences 
Same symptoms as MS blast .... overloads RPC and shuts PC down

I suggest you look at this page FIRST before deleting a CORE WINDOWS FILE!

i read the symantec thing and it was very confusing. to me it said it downloads patches from microsoft, then deletes the msblast virus/worm and on 1/1/2004 deletes itself
