Round 2 with the virus 2

Posted by Daniel on February 22, 2005

Man, this is the battle of the century. So my boss Jeff worked late last night to redo a lot of the work I did yesterday on the server. Today we take it down there to get it working. We went around and did a virus scan on all of the computers with the latest pattern from Trend Micro and got them all cleaned up. And wouldn’t you know it, as soon as we put one of the computers back online the same thing happened that happened yesterday. Another 7 hours down the toilet, but only 1-2 of them were mine this time. The workstations were still working so as a makeshift solution I made one of them act as a workstation and server and got them up and working. We still need to figure out what is happening with the server… but that is for another day, I am spent! My boss is going to go there tomorrow morning to call Microsoft and see if they can offer any help. I’d call round 2 a draw…

    sounds like a lot of fun. Good luck! I hope round 3 goes better.

    We won!!! And it turns out it wasn’t a virus actually… it was a bug in Windows 2003 Server. It was really strange and very similar to the virus that had before. But anyway, they are up and running properly now.
