Futile, When you stop the MSBLAST process you are then likely to get
infected by welchia which tries to remove msblast and causes more
heartache (and i know heartache because i eat lots of burgers and sit in
front of a PC for days on end without excercise)... Best option... have
some small software firewall like neowatch or something on standby on a
CD to install it, Block that port and then end the process.
