Whoa...hold your fire..... while I haven't seen this particular beastie, my
BlackIce Defender just set off an alarm for an attack attempt with the
NetBus trojan horse. Don't know if this is a new one or not. Running
BlackIce on the _paranoid_ setting.

As far as the micro$lop, soon as I find a -500au my Aptiva is history.
