Blackworm Internet Worm Virus Attack

 

Blackworm has infected million of computers worldwide and has damaged the data stored in them. Blackworm/w32 is an internet worm which spreads through E-mails as attachment. The attachment is generally in zip format in the e-mail. It generally attacks on 3rd of evry month.

Once a person download the attachment and unzips the infected file, the worm get into the computer and damage files stored in the computer. It also manipulates the stored files in your computer. It may infect .doc, .zip, .exe and the list goes on.

It is also popularly known as Kamasutra Virus.

Right now the precaution is the only solution for it because it has the capability to even disable your ant virus. But on the safe side you can upgrade your anti-virus defintions by visiting your anti-virus website.

This virus can create lot of trouble if not treated properly, so do not take this lightly.

The best thing you can do is not to download or open any e-mail any attachment from any unknown source or person. But if somehow your computer gets infected with it, please disconnect it from the network. So that the other computers may be safe.

Also try to tell the other people sharing the network to do not save any such file on the their computer. One thing more I recommend if you chat on any instant messenger, please do not accept any file from any unknown person on the internet.

Take Care,
Cyber Force will always help YOU!
Happy Computing
