Isass.exe Help Needed !!!

[Adam Bouzaid]

On the 1/5/04 we found out that i have received a virus
called Isass.exe, we have noticed that the computer has
been shutting down all the time. I have found the main
Location to the " Virus "

Eg. \WINDOWS\system\Isass.exe - but unable to find the
Isass.exe File, and also searching via " Regedit " in the
run file. I have done a Norton Anti Virus Live Update and
a C:\\ drive scan, but come up with nothing. If you have
any other ways of finding out how to remove this virus,
please contact to this Post as soon as possible !

Thank you for your time. If need to contact via email
please send an email to (e-mail address removed).

It is about a warm: sasser

Once executed, the worm drops a file in the Windows directory (%WINDIR%)

%WINDIR%\avserve.exe -- Win32.Worm.Sasser.
%WINDIR%\avserve2.exe -- Win32.Worm.Sasser.B,

and creates the registry key

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Ru
with the value

"avserve.exe" = "%WINDIR%\avserve.exe" -- Win32.Worm.Sasser.
"avserve2.exe" = "%WINDIR%\avserve2.exe" -- Win32.Worm.Sasser.B,

Greetings --

You've apparently contracted the latest worm, W32.Sasser.Worm,
specifically designed to attack people who do not update their
computers promptly and who do not practice "safe hex." In other
words, like Blaster, this worm was developed and distributed _after_ a
patch for the vulnerability was announced and made publicly available.
Further, and also like Blaster, this worm could not affect any
computer whose user had taken the basic precaution of using a properly
configured firewall.

To stay on-line long enough to get the necessary updates, patches,
and removal tools, click Start > Run, and enter "shutdown -a" when the
next RPC countdown begins. This will abort the shut down. Also, make
sure you've enabled a firewall before starting, to preclude any more
intrusions while getting the updates/patches/tools.

this is not lsass.exe worm. it is called sasser worm . do not try to remove lsass.exe. the one you are trying to remove is avserve.exe or avserve2 exe. best off to search symantec on internet explorer and read up on sasser worm and its variant
