Sorry to hear you got hit that hard, but according to ISS they had a
patch out for this a week before the worm hit.

From their website: (http://www.iss.net/)=20
"The fix was delivered as a maintenance update before eEye publicly
disclosed the vulnerability. Before any worm could be developed 'in the
wild', ISS customers were protected automatically via a simple update
that shielded the vulnerability from attack."

I'm guessing you guys didn't get the update?

I just want to say that this virus writer must really have some brass
ones,
man.   This was a looloo, came back in through ISS on our servers.
Knocked
out all critical systems. Thank goodness we have great people on our
team,
enabling us to be back up by business this morning...mostly.  I sure
hope
that no one else got hit with it.  We might be doing cleanup for weeks.

Sorry - the URL got a little messed up when I sent it.

It should be http://tinyurl.com/2n3b7.
