***Warning to all***
News just out, the Sasser Virus has mutated again. The existing Microsoft patch (KB835732) will stop you getting infected but if you are already infected, with this variant, the Microsoft removal tool does not clean your PC anymore.
The mutation is simple, the new infected file is lasss.exe instead of lsass.exe.
To fix this, kill lsasss.exe in task manager and then go into the registry HKLM\LM\Software\Windows\Run and delete the lsasss.exe key.
Then go C:\Windows and delete lsasss.exe
Be careful out there.
