    Mydoom.C (a.k.a. Doomjuice)



    A new variant of the Mydoom worm, known as Mydoom.C (or Doomjuice), was detected on the Internet on February 9. Currently spreading to computers that were already infected with Mydoom.A, Mydoom.C causes computers to be used in attacks against other computers on the Internet. Infection by Mydoom.C can degrade both computer performance and network connections. Customers who have successfully removed Mydoom.A from their computers are not at risk for Mydoom.C infection.

    Microsoft recommends that you review the information on this page to determine if you are infected and to learn what to do.

        Not unless they rewrite to bypass patch protection. That is why the known one also patches the other cloned ones.
        But yeah sure, there will be a dozen at least.

          It would be good if someone wrote a one to remove the others...

            I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not given that text does not convey emotion, but I for one like that he's posting these things. It's not hurting anybody.

              I don't think he was being sarcastic.
