Like another poster already said - it is *very* likely you have something
lurking on your computer (spyware, hostile redirector, etc.)

Try using this tool - Spybot Search & Destroy <http://security.kolla.de> .
It is free, and the only "pay for" anti-spyware/malware program better than
Spybot is Pest Patrol.

I'm sure you'll be amazed at what it turns up.

Hi Folks,

What I've seen is really strange.  I don't surf with active scripting on at
all. However, I've discovered a trick that it seems folks using JAVA have
figured out, 
That I'm trying to track down.

What it does is no matter what java page you go, the same popup window opens
up. I look at the source of the web page to see if they are using JAVA. I've
not been able to find the true cause of all this!! And that is the scary
part.

So, if anyone has an idea of this and have logged anything of this nature,
Plese let me know.

Thank you,

Joseph

Funny enough, none of my setups was affected by these viruses. And I'd bet
the new W32/Mimail@MM won't pass my security measures either. 

I'm more worried about the RPC issue in general, what with the millions of
people using dial-up connections and not sitting behing an ISA box.

As a result, in firewalled networks the immediate threat is medium if any.
Nevertheless the machines leaving the network on a regular basis (i.e.
laptops) need immediate attention.

And if you didn't learn your lesson after Code Red and Nimda...then you
deserve what this new virus does to each and every one of your systems
:)

Hum, good point :-) But if I remember correctly, Code Red exploited an 
IIS specific vulnerability which was not addressed by WU, right?
