Hi Terry,

I had a problem a few days ago with continuous ICMP outbound traffic. I us CA EZ antivirus and was totally upto date, but later in the day when my auto upload for EZ fired, within 5 minutes it found the Win32.Nach1.A virus.

The blaster tools did not fin this NACHI virus. I have WIN2K and noticed the culprit file to be DLLHOST.EXE when viewing in the Task Manager.

Regards
Doug Johnston
