Security Advice from Microsoft
http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/030815/sff017_1.html
The Virtual Chase posted this excellent information this morning:
http://grc.com >. Follow the links for Shields UP, a free, but currently very busy, security check service. Because the current worm takes advantage of a vulnerability in Microsoft's DCOM (Distributed Component Object Model) RPC interface, you want to ensure that the port for the DCOM Service Control Manager (port 135), as well as the ports for NETBIOS Session Service (139) and Microsoft Directory Services (445) are closed.
http://snurl.com/2263 >. Others should install current versions of software and hardware firewalls, and then test them at GRC. (Even Windows XP users may want to install a hardware firewall. I run both a hardware and software firewall on my Windows XP machine.)
