Beagle.B worm

This worm struck machines at Miami University during the time we were on the air with Help Desk, Tuesday morning 2/17/2004. The rapidity of its spread was remarkable and gave headaches to tech support people all over the country, but it does not appear to be as dangerous as some and can be contained easily. A reminder from your pals at the Help Desk: Don't open attachments, guys. Use virus software such as Symantec or McAfee, and keep your virus definitions up to date.
And stand up straight, and wash behind your ears!
