The “Storm Worm” is out to use your computer to spread its infection of other computers. According to the Finnish security analyst F-Secure the virus has infected 15.7% of European Servers and 20.3% of American servers. The virus passes itself from email system to email system and can damage peoples computers as well as compromise their data. What does the Storm Worm Do? The worm will send messages related to the European storm and when unsuspecting readers open it a Trojan virus will be downloaded onto their computer. At this point the virus will expand sending more emails using your computer, create operational problems with the computer and potentially steal data.
