A worm is a type of computer virus that generally spreads without user action and that distributes complete copies (possibly modified) of itself across networks (such as the Internet).

This article describes virus alert about the Blaster worm and its variants and contains information about how to prevent and recover from an infection from the Blaster worm and its variants.Īpplies to: Windows 10 - all editions, Windows Server 2012 R2 Original KB number: 826955 Summary
