The latest virus to hit the Internet is a high-risk one. It's known as "Blaster Worm" or "Lovsan," and it affects computers running Windows XP and Windows 2000 operating systems. Road Runner's national help desk has set up a web page that explains more, and there is a special toll-free number for Road Runner customers to call to get a recorded message on how to fix your infected PC. The number is: 1-877-909-8333.
