Thanks for the scan. I turned off kdm. I will upgrade my firewall when my wife gets off aol. These results are about what I expected. I am surprised that the ShieldsUp web site told me these ports (113, 80, 84) were "stealth" when they are open. I may have missed some attempts to scan ports because I don't log those ports I accept, just the ones I deny. Oh well, I think I am safe from this new virus. These worms get more and more vicious. What if the virus writer had intended to do obvious harm like erase eveyone's hard drive? I feel like windows users are still living in the pre-9/11 world. Joel
