We broke this story 20 minutes before Slashdot. ;)

Standard Disclaimer - I'm not responsible for these instructions. Use them at your own risk...

... But this should work. To disinfect:

1. Start, Run, "regedt32"
2. Navigate to the tree HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
3. Delete entry called 'windows auto update' - It should mention msblast.exe
4. Reboot
5. Delete msblast.exe

As I mentioned in my previous post, PATCH YOUR SYSTEMS. Block the ports mentioned too, if you can.
