Re: Help!!!!

This is what is called the walled garden. If a user is picked up as infected with (i believe) netsky or bagle then they are forced into a restricted zone called the walled garden. They then must download any appropriate fixes/ patches from the site presented to them - this process was first implemented during the blaster /welchia viruses.

Then upto 3 hours after the server confrims that the infection has been removed and protection applied, the user will be removed from the walled garden and normal service be restored. It seems like this is waht happened in Ibeam's case.

hope that helps to clarify the situation.
