This worm has been plagueing my chosen IRC server all day.

The message is:

Oh, and let me add this: Windows users should always be using a firewall at all times, preferably a hardware or linux one but a personal firewall will do. Your systems are desperately vulnerable, and not only that, can be used as a platform to attack other users and sites, and to spread malicious code. Please install a firewall ASAP, preferably with port filtering on both sides of the firewall.
