How do you guys find these worms and viruses. If they are getting through your firewalls can your internet security find them later or is there some other way you do it? Thanks.

I use AVG free virus software. It is excellent and works its magic effortlessly (even updating itself with any new versions of the software automatically and checking for new virus updates every day and it runs a complete scan every night a 3 am), scanning all inputs, like email and downloads as they arrive and holding them up if there is ANY questionable content. That is, except for Microsoft stuff. They won't allow me to download with Mozilla or firefox and control my computer if IE is in effect, so they get things around the firewall (Softperfect firewall) and the vurus software. That is where I picked up the damned worm. AVG (grisoft.com) has a page of special downloadable programs to clean out the things. Most better virus software has a similar page of downloads, with instructions.
