I have personally experienced this problem at least three times after doing fresh
installs of XP pro on two different laptops, and have found that it CAN be due to
something other than the W32.Sasser.Worm.
Of course, it is best to have both a firewall (try sygate personal firewall or zonealarm)
and antivirus installed before you go online to be safe. If you even suspect this
could be a worm, go to McAfee and get the "stinger" to scan for it and repair as
needed. Check out: http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/
However, if you get this error and have reason to believe that it is not the worm,
then try this- it works for me every time: Open up your network connections, and
right click on your Local Area Connection to set Properties. Under the Advanced tab,
check the box to enable the firewall. For some reason the error never happens again.
(Yes, I have updated antivirus, stinger, firewall, etc, and there is no "wormsign".
