Default Re: windows crashing/ locking up

Greetings:

It's posible your computer has been infected by the Sasser worm
go to the following page and run a test to discard that posibility.

What you should know about the Sasser.worm and its variants
http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/sasser.mspx
In this page you can determine which variant of the virus infected your
computer.

Install Ad-aware6 from Lavasoft.com
http://www.lavasoftusa.com update before first scan

Install Spybot Search and Destroy and update before first scan.

Also install The Cleaner from;
