I work at the University of Phoenix and Nimba is kicking our butts.

What a mess. From what I've read, it's possible for people to spread the virus, but not be infected. It only attacks servers run a particular version of an MS server software. I'm sure Doreen's link shows what that is. I looked it up on Symantec's eariler, but our server is so slow now, i don't want to look it up.

I assume this is a denile of service type attack meant to annoy everyone but not do any real damage.
