excuse my ignorance, but what is avast cleaner?
I have avast home edition. Is that cleaner comes separate?
does avast home has protection against sassers too?
avast! Cleaner is separate free product which is able to remove the most widespread viruses and worms - without any installation. See the above link for description.
And yes - of course you are protected against sassers by the avast! itself (if your virus database is up to date)
Pavel
Oh, I’m relieved, thanks so much
Yes, its always updated, thanks to your wonderful auto update feature, the most active updater I’ve ever seen among all anti-virus softwares.
Thanks to all of you for your hard work!!

Cojo,
I just put up a new topic re: Sasser.
Microsoft has a Check your computer link which is great to detect the presence of the worm,
then we can use the great Avast Cleaner to rid us of it! ;D
Nice work Pavel and the Team.

Techie,
avast! is of course also able to detect all variants of this worm . If you use avast! (or avast! Cleaner), there is no need to use Microsoft Check ;D.
Also - if you have the April patches installed, you are safe against these worms and this kind of attack in general.
regards,
Pavel
Thanks Techie and Pavel…
my system is up to date with Avast and Windows…
Pavel, after you let us know about being protected, I ran a thorough scan and got my usual results–Clean.
Again thank you and all the Alwil team for your hard work.
