Does this mean anything to anyone??

When I just booted a message came up that read...

"Just checkin the walls" Title and

"Patch it up or the ship will sink"!!

WTF is that all about?

Has anybody else experienced this?

This could be W32.Supova.B.worm

Thanks a lot Mark...That explains the Kazaa files then.

Nice one.

I'd get rid of it pronto, it does have a deletion routine, not sure when it triggers.

What sort of files does this little b*stard delete then??

I`ve managed to get rid of it now though...just wondering what it could have done??

From the link above.

The worm also contains the code to delete files:
%windir%\*.*
%windir%\System\*.*
%windir%\System32\*.*"

If you have Windows 2000, or Windows XP it *should* stop programs being able to delete/overwrite the system files.

Have a look in the event log, as it usually says here if this is the case.
