Yes I have windozes and will scan them for viruses.
Thanks so much for the hint.

I presume you are referring to a worm running on a Windows box
and NOT a worm running on a Linux (much less a RedHat) box? I'm
currently tracking numerous netbios worms, the worst of which are
the OpaServ family (which currently contains 5 varients A-F) which
are, at this time, accounting for roughly 800,000 to 900,000 137/udp
netbios name service request packets per day into my "dark network"
research project (25,600 non-responding "darknet" addresses). I know
of no such worm which is attempting to propagate over netbios po! rts from
Linux boxes (slapper and it's ilk are using https 443/tcp). So it
must be one or more of your Windows boxen. I suppose it could be a
VMWare window or, thanks to the KMail guys and their wonderful support
of Windows attachments under Wine, may a worm under wine, but I doubt
it. That makes this message more than a little off topic on the
RedHat list since it probably doesn't have anything to do with Linux.
If it's OpaServ (1000:1 probability) then go to your local
friendly AV Vendor site and follow their instructios to disinfect your
Windows boxes. Better yet. Rebuild them with Linux and be done with it.
