Electronic Bookworm In Education
The W32.Spybot.ACYR worm is attacking educational sites and computers. It using vulnerabilities in Microsoft and Symantec. Users who have patched their Symantec security in May are safe, but others may not be. Those who don't have a patched version of Symantec's software should consider blocking port 2967 at their firewalls.
For the most part households should have no problems as it seems to only be targetting .edu domains, but people should still be prepared in case there is a change.
