Norton just blocked a worm

[PrepH4U]

Ok I just rec'd this warning that Norton block a NetBus Trojan horse worm from an intrusion while I was reading the forums. I copied all info it provided. My question is : is there anyway to tell where the intrusion was coming from?

Isn't TWL good at computers? Maybe he could help. :shrug:

I got the same notification last Tuesday. I was switching between websites - USA Today and this one, when the Norton window popped up in the lower right hand corner of my screen.

To the best of my recollection, it said:

Norton anti-virus/worm intrusion protection has detected and blocked NetBus - a Trojan Horse worm from entering your computer.

Time: 9:36am

Date: Aug 16, 2005

Path: N/A

I recall a bunch of PCs all across the states got hit with an intrusion on their Windows 2000 OSs, but I'm not sure if it was part of this one.

I checked "quarrantine" and there's nothing in there about any worm, so it must have gone "poof", I suppose.

I just Googled "NetBus Trojan Horse", and got this:

NetBus Pro 2.1 is a remote administration and monitoring tool from UltraAccess Networks, Inc.

Norton suggests you disable ALL remote access to your PC. This worm has been around since 2001!
