Free Microsoft Security Tool Kills Worm Targeting Critical Windows Flaw
Microsoft has updated the Malicious Software Removal Tool, a free security tool the company is offering Windows users to fight specific malware, in order to defend themselves agaist a prevalent worm that targets a Critical Windows vulnerability. Back in October 2008, the Redmond company made available an out-of-band security bulleting (MS08-067) designed to resolve a Critical flaw in the Windows Server service (SVCHOST.EXE) affecting all supported versions of Windows. At that time, Microsoft warned that even Windows Vista SP1, Windows Server 2008 and Windows XP SP3 were vulnerable, and also released a patch for the pre-release version of Windows 7.
