The Kama Sutra worm is sceduled to strike at 12:01 Feb. 3 (as well as every 3rd day of the month thereafter). The worm is attained through pornographic email and will overwrite many types of documents.

The documents will likely not be recoverable after this worm is finished with them. It is a good time to back up files and scan for the worm if you are at risk.

here is one symantec fix:

Be careful surfing for it as well. My brother-in-law surfed for porn on my computer awhile back and I ended up with 12 trojans; they shut off my anti-virus software and disabled my firewall. I out-grew my porno surfing days several years ago, but I am still scanning my puter.

Well, I'm a technician of 6 years now....

About 4 weeks ago I messed up my computer surfing the adult sites
It's embarrassing as the "head technician" to ask the boss if you can come in on your day off to clean your computer of virii because you messed it up with adult sites.
I believe this virus is to hit tonight at the change-over to midnight...and as the day goes on...more and more people will turn on their computers and find out their data if FUBAR
Heh, try tactifully explaining to a man's wife why a virus ate all their data

*sigh* So is the life of a computer tech.....

I don't personally get porn. But I know some other computers on my network that do. I may or may not have to cancel their internet service and convince them that they have the virus and the the only way to fix the computer is complete and utter reformat of the hard drives

They saw nothing. They have no evidence
