An AFP article sez:
Sampo, Finland’s third largest bank, closed its 130 branch offices across the country to prevent the Sasser Internet worm from infecting its systems.
“We decided to close our offices as a precaution, since we knew that our virus protection hadn’t been updated,” Sampo spokesman Hannu Vuola told AFP on Monday.
Donna comments:
They need to make sure the systems are patched instead of depending on AV .. don’t they know it??
She is right. Updating virus protection files won’t stop this type of worm.
