I don't suffer the problems reported here. I really have no idea why this is suddenly popping up now.

1) I have not downloaded the August M$ updates yet. My last download were the July updates.

2) I am on manual updates. I have switched off auto updates for more than a year now.

3) Windows Firewall is disabled.

4) I have ZoneAlarm Free, and I have no problems.

5) Only basic AVG Free on my machine.

I believe it's a new worm making it's rounds. It's probably exploiting unpatched machines & causing these buffer overruns.

You're unaffected because ZA is preventing the worm from getting in. The shutdowns should be more prevalent during the day when more infected machines are on the network.

Hehe..try disabling ZA for a few hours & see what happens  smile.gif

Hehe, if you're right (and I bet you are!) and there is a new worm making its rounds, no way am I disabling my ZA. biggrin.gif
