I think I have one of the Gaobot worms. Have been getting NT Authority shutdowns, with Windows32/lsass.exc. Now I was on the internet and Norton notified me they deleted the SSworm . I have been getting updates all week and had a full scan with no infections. If I go to Microsoft and download a patch for this buffer vulnerability and have they worm what will happen? How do I get rid of this? How do I found out if I am infected?
