Sasser.A and Sasser.B Worm Removal Tool
In these days there's a worm, identified as W32.Sasser.worm (with its variants), which are currently circulating on the Internet. Microsoft has verified that the worm exploits the Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS) issue addressed in Microsoft Security Update MS04-011.
To protect your computer against Sasser and its variants, MS has published these instructions: What You Should Know About the Sasser Worm and Its Variants.
However, a situation has been identified where the Sasser.A or Sasser.B worms could have infected some systems before the application of MS04-011 [KB835732]. This Sasser.A and Sasser.B Worm Removal Tool will help remove the Sasser.A and Sasser.B worms from these systems. For systems with MS04-011 [KB835732], no further action is needed once this tool is installed.
