Most of them do. But of course, by the time a virus is identified and
the anti-virus software is updated and people update their
anti-virus... well, but then it is too late for many many people.
Possibly many felt quite secure running their Norton and opening the
MyDooom file the first couple of days.
Personally, i am ambivalent to some small degree about mydoom. On the
one hand it's a trojan and it screws up my bandwidth and is BAD. On
the other hand, it infects MS malware to attack SCO, and that's kinda
GOOD.
