Valued Microsoft Customer,

If you are still evaluating or testing the updates detailed in 
Microsoft Security Bulletin MS04-011, we strongly recommend that you 
expedite your review and deployment of these updates as soon as 
possible. These updates will protect your systems from the Sasser 
worm and its variants.  If your systems have become infected, we 
have made a tool available for download that will detect and remove 
the Sasser worm and its variants.  The tool is available at 
www.microsoft.com/sasser.
