That'd be the first worm that can't be cured... do have a look at http://vil.nai.com/vil/wm98500.asp - you'll find your cure, along with a lengthy description of what the worm does, there... :)

Well, the fun thing was that the same message was sent (by the virus) to both the idm and the ambient list - with the difference that the idm list is set up to strip any attachments from the postings, while the ambient list isn't... How about setting up the ambient list in the same way?
