I got hit with it as well. I was wondering what this msblaster.exe was doing in the taskmgr.... a google search brought me to realize it was a worm.
I updated Win 2K Pro to service pack 3 added the MS fix, then went to symantec, got the latest virus sig file ( which started to tell me 30 times I had the worm... ) and used their exe to fix the problem. They got rid of the worm, the msblaster.exe, fixed the registry settings.
Now all I need to do is get my taskmgr working again, cause I can't see my the buttons to change to view the utilization and can't shut it down without killing the taskmgr process (luckily the only screen available)
