Re: Worms?
Date: 2005-06-04 05:38 am (UTC)What happened here was that when the Java runtime (javaw.exe) asked for a free TCP port, Windows gave it one that was on Norton's block list. and so Norton blocked it, which made Eclipse (a Java development enviroment) fall over when it tried to start the debugger for my program. No trojans involved, just a trigger-happy firewall.
As to your problem, it's not something that I've seen before. The first number is the KB code for MS05-024, a patch for a remote code execution in web view. A Google for the whole file turned up nothing, but when I replaced the punctuation with spaces I got a reference on a forum to Software Update Services (specifically, about SUS going on strike and spewing out errors instead of patches). If you're running SUS then it may be worth checking the settings and relevant logs.
Apart from that I don't have any ideas. Hope you have more success than me at solving it!
