Hmm. Looks like MS is
really down playing the effect of the Sasser virus.
This was the message I got when I tried Spring's link.
We’re sorry, we were unable to service your request. As an option, you may visit any of the pages below for information about Microsoft services and products.
The link works. It just didn't then for whatever reason. Too many people checking it?
In other news, I too am immune because I am running win98 SE. (Yes, that's right folks, our very own Saint has his own operating system). It's at times like these when I remember why I shouldn't complain that I'm the only person in my company who's computer runs 98 instead of 2000/XP.
It looks like few of the home versions would be affected either. Mostly just 2000 and the earliest version of XP (can't tell if it's professional or not).
Okay, so yes, all of this information is listed on that page, but I thought it was interesting, especially since it seems to affect so few versions of the MS OS. Does this mean that the virus is not as widespread as they thought, or that most companies are not using the newest versions of the software?
