Yes, it's an RPC exploit, not really detectable by any sort of virus
protection, you need a (good) firewall. My NAT router provides the

score so far
Clients using Win98se or Me with AVG & a Kerio or Tiny Personal
Firewall -- no reported problems
Clients using Windows XP firewall -- with or without NAV -- 2 infections
Clients using Windows XP -- with Kerio firewall --- no reported problems

My own setup is a Windows 98se and Linux boxes all with own firewalls
sitting behind a Conexant NAT router with a Free BSD firewall built in but
recent events are making me consider adding an IP Cop box between the
Conexant Router and the network hub.
