Anybody have a clue as to why I am having to clean 10-50 copies of NETSKY and associated variants off of my servers every day for the last week? They are safely disabled at the time, but sheesh!
My usually quiet F-prot has had its hands full trying to cope with all the crap slinging my way lately. I was just wondering if it was some kind of a spawning season for these things or what.
BTW, what does it do anyway?
Just curious...
Recent virus activity through the roof!!!

I never use MSN or any other messaging software. I used the registry hack to disable it on my system.
But, the question is why recently has virus activity spiked so much? I used to go weeks without an alert of any kind. Now, they are daily.
I'm no expert. But, I am paranoid. Something is going on out of the ordinary.
