It basically crashes your sql servers. In our case it it totally screwed the sa account so we cant admin the server. There is a patch for it already on the microsoft site. But we have to rebuild several stored procedures…I hate stored procedures…Not a pretty site. If you have not got hit get the patch…it exposes a security vulnerability in sql…It is a worm so it is everywhere ---

IMO… these things are started by people who work for the Anti-Virus Software consortium, in conjunction with Microsoft… I think that their planned obsolesence plan isn’t going as planned, so they have been inventing new virus/worms to get businesses to have to replace equipment and software. That is why so many are targeted for MS products (one major reason I don’t want any one co. producing most of the computer apps). JMHO Rev ![](http://www.aulman.com/rev.gif) ---

I wouldn’t be surprise. Perpetual upgrades is one of the main components to Microsoft’s success. ---
