With the introduction of more and more technology, different types of dangers have also come our way. Such risks can be avoided by practicing certain measures. Mostly when children use the webcams in their bedrooms, people on the other side can use the W32 virus to see what the young girl or boy is doing in their bedrooms.</p>
<p>It is always better to pay heed to such dangers from before itself. This will make you cautious about keeping your PC safe and out of the reach of such viruses. Going through the internet journals and news will give you information regarding how this type of mal-programs is designed and how they work.</p>
<ol>
<li>One can also drill out varieties of your family details by using which one can engage you in different illicit activities.</li>
<li>Virus W32 is a webcam virus mostly used by sexual predators on the internet. It mostly victimizes small children. It is always better to prevent the young ones from installing a PC in their bedrooms.</li>
<li>This type of viruses has many forms and is also used in desktops too.</li>
</ol>
<p>As it is gaining immense popularity, there is a severe need to make it well protected by formulating highly efficient antivirus software. This will also reduce the number of cyber-bullying that is so common presently. The software must have certain qualities like:</p>
<ul>
<li>The website of the distributor must have a fast scanning method. This will give you a chance to see whether there is any spyware in the system or not.</li>
<li>The database of the software must be updated from time to time. If possible, every hour.</li>
<li>It should follow an easy operating procedure. But it should keep the system well protected.</li>
<li>Going for certified products will make you more assured of the safety value that you are using for your computer system.</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Computer viruses have become a very common term that we hear in our day to day lives. If there are antivirus in the market, there is also proven and tested antivirus that helps us in removing harmful viruses from our computers that too within a very short time. One such malware that is creating havoc in the internet market with high speed is the Blaster virus. It has been designed to affect the windows user and not the MAC users. If not removed quickly then it can destroy various component part and programs of our computer systems.</p>
<p>Most of the viruses that we know get distributed by the sending and receiving of emails. But the case is not like that with Blaster Worm Virus. The programs included in it have the ability to exploit the programs of the Remote Procedure Call process and creates a gap through it to make its way.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" style="margin: 5px;" title="Blaster Virus using RPC" src="http://inetexplorer.mvps.org/images/rpc.jpg" alt="rpc Ways to Get Rid of Blaster Virus" width="371" height="214" /></p>
<p>As soon as it gets installed it starts disrupting and crashing the system; mostly while trying to establish a link with the network.</p>
<p>Have a look at this video to get an idea about the blaster virus.</p>
<p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/r0_xtYwPs5M?rel=0" frameborder="0" width="550" height="315"></iframe></p>
<ul>
<li>The easiest way to remove it is to use <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=16" target="_blank">Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool</a> which also acts as a good Blaster Virus removal tool.</li>
<li>Besides removing it, this version also creates a safety shield to prevent attacks that may occur in the future.</li>
<li>It helps in mending the loopholes that are created by the viruses during the RPC process. Older versions are not powerful enough to carry on with the removal process.</li>
<li>Just because the virus keeps on updating itself, so, the software used for detecting and killing it must also get updated to provide one with the extreme results. If not dome so then it can pose a threat to the database.</li>
<li>The latest versions will enable you to keep the counting up as soon as you connect to different websites. It removes all the unwanted and unauthorized programs and files. Scanning clears off the system totally.</li>

It attacked a single computer and also the entire networks of computers connected through LAN. Sasser virus intrudes into a known windows vulnerability that was easily patched by Microsoft. It has attacked Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 and Windows NT.</p>
<p>Microsoft Security Team fixed the following vulnerabilities using patches/updates:</p>
<ul>
<li>LSASS Vulnerability </li>
<li>PCT Vulnerability </li>
<li>LDAP Vulnerability </li>
<li>Metafile Vulnerability </li>
<li>Winlogon Vulnerability </li>
<li>Utility Manager Vulnerability </li>
<li>Help and Support Center Vulnerability </li>
<li>Windows Management Vulnerability </li>
<li>H.323 Vulnerability </li>
<li>Local Descriptor Table Vulnerability </li>
<li>Negotiate SSP Vulnerability </li>
<li>Virtual DOS Machine Vulnerability </li>
<li>ASN.1 “Double-Free” Vulnerability </li>
<li>SSL Vulnerability </li>
</ul>
<p align="justify">A Microsoft Security Bulletin version <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms04-011.mspx" target="_blank">MS04-011</a> explains about the operating systems which were affected due to Sasser Worm.</p>
<p align="justify">Before Microsoft created sasser worm removal tool to fix this issue security experts followed the below process in removing w32 sasser b:</p>
<p align="justify">1. First, disconnect the computer from any internet or LAN connection</p>
<p align="justify">2. Terminate all the program that are running. For this open Windows Task Manager either by pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL or select Task Manager and process Tab on WinNT/2000/XP machine. Locate any one of the following files</p>
<p align="justify">avserve.exe, avserve2.exe, skynetave.exe or any process running with “_up.exe” and click End Task. Close Task Manager.</p>
<p align="justify">3. Next, activate Windows XP Firewall Version for Windows XP and another firewall for other versions to disable the worm from shutting down when the downloading the patches is still in process. </p>
<p align="justify">4. Download and install the patches for the respective Operating Systems</p>
<p align="justify">5. Remove the Registry entries</p>
<p align="justify">6. Delete all the infected files. In case you are using Windows ME and XP first turn off System Restore </p>
<p align="justify">7. In the end reboot the computer, update your windows and antivirus software and do a thorough scan.</p>
<p align="justify">In 2004 Microsoft “Fast Publish” a tool called <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841720" target="_blank">Microsoft Sasser Worm Removal Tool</a> which removes w32.sasser.worm effectively from the PC but later it has been added to the Microsoft malicious software removal tool.</p>
<p align="justify">If your computer is running slower than usual or experiencing unexpected pop-ups just give a call to the free security support for <a href="https://consumersecuritysupport.microsoft.com/default.aspx?mkt=en-us&amp;st=1&amp;wfxredirect=1" target="_blank">Microsoft PC Safety</a>.</p>
