Pozas - a new virus?
A mate of mine reports system shutdowns a la MSblaster, with a screen reporting "Pozas worm virus".
Anyone know anything about it?
I've searched Trend Micro, Vet (Computer Associates) and Google with no luck.
Cheers

Ausatco,
If you look on each of these pages you will find it listed:
Symantec Win32.Poza.A
McAfee Win32.Poza
Trend Micro W32.Blaster.Worm
Here is the latest from Microsoft:

Take Care,

Binos, Richard, thank you. That info is, of course, exactly what I need and confirmed my suspicion that my mate was suffering from a variant of the Blaster worm. Dunno why my search turned up nothing - I received a zero result from Vet and Trend Micro when I input poza in their search fields.
Oh, well, all ok now. Thanks.
