Still getting hit by the W32.Esbot Worm?

Some people are still getting whacked today by the Esbot worm. A friend of mine just IM me, and said that he got hit this afternoon he had been asleep at the switch for a couple of days and is in panic mode I had received a couple of these links earlier. Thanks Rob and Kevin as I was able to quickly give the friend some tools to work with..

Kevin Devin one of the Podcasters with TechPodcasts.com sent me a link to a procedure he used on a network he administers that got slammed yesterday. Here is what Kevin did in addition here is a link to a Symantec tool for removing the worm make sure you follow their instructions.
