"The new worm scours the Internet for computers already infected with Blaster
and deletes the "bad" worm, according to two anti-virus software vendors. The
worm then fixes the computers with one of eight software patches developed by
Microsoft Corp, and it uses infected computers as a base for searching the
Internet for other vulnerable systems."
