Before you post a question to a Microsoft.public.*.security newsgroup, note
that your question may already be answered below:

Answers to Top Frequently Asked Questions:
[url]http://securityadmin.info[/url]

I'm getting an LSASS error message, and/or I have the Sasser virus.
1) Run anti-virus that is configured to download the latest updates every
week or even every day. [url]www.grisoft.com[/url] is free anti-virus.
2) You also need to install all the patches for your system software from
[url]http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com[/url], starting with the MS04-011 patch.
Microsoft generally releases security patches on the second Tuesday of more
or less every month. [Theh MS04-011 patch is also available here:
[url]http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms04-011.mspx[/url]
.... though you still want to visit the Windows Update site to get all
patches.]
3) Once you're infected, you may need to download and run a free Sasser
virus removal tool such as the Stinger tool from [url]www.McAfee.com[/url] or the free
tool from [url]http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/sasser.asp[/url]
4) You're not running a firewall, or your firewall isn't protecting you.
Running a firewall would have protected you from this. Free firewall
software is available from [url]www.kerio.com[/url], [url]www.zonealarm.com[/url] and/or
[url]www.sygate.com[/url]
5) You need to do ALL of these things, or you won't have much success.
You should also make sure you get the latest Microsoft patches monthly and
anti-virus updates at least weekly.

My question is not mentioned below. How do I get an answer immediately,
with no waiting?

Not everyone agrees. I'm not sure what the negative impact to daily posting
is, since you can just easily ignore the post. I would think it would
benefit you if it reduced the ratio of signal to noise and reduced the
number of posts you had to respond to [assuming you're a regular around
here?].

The Microsoft public newsgroups are unique in Usenet in that a large number
of people use the Microsoft web site GUI, where any post that is older than
a day is pretty much hidden from view. It seemed clear to me that when I
was posting this once a month, it wasn't doing much to help. The owner of
the microsoft.public.security.virus FAQ also posts that FAQ daily.

I had been posting the FAQ every one to two weeks, but increased the
frequency in the past two weeks due to the repeated posting of Sasser
virus-related questions. I won't always be posting it daily, this is an
exceptional situation.
