i had sasser virus(a very common virus) in my pc for almost an year and it used to shut down my pc in a minute on the warning...none of the best avs available (nav, mcaffe, pc-cillin, avast) cud detect n remove it...finally i had to reinstall my os....

u can remove the sasser worm using the McAffee Stinger this is not a full fleged anti virus tool but it does delete the sasser worm
i have used it in my computer to remove this worm as well as many more backdoor trojans
dude mcaffe stinger was there in my pc but it cud only detect it n not remove it...must be a really deadly version of sasser...normal sasser virus can b removed by any aira gaira av..lol

As swatkat said, the worst viruses are those that don't have a "fix" for them, called "In the Wild" viruses. They are most damaging because by the time the fix is out, the virus would have spread far and damaged/infected millions of computers across the planet. As of now however, the most damaging virus to date has been MyDoom. Removal tools for most viruses are provided by antivirus software companies for free on their web sites along with removal instructions. Its always recommended that you install a antivirus/firewall combo and keep it updated with the latest updates.
how destructive is the new sober worm ??
i heard that its been spreading like anything these days

The virus is being evaluated to be upped to a higher category/high-risk virus, but the infection level percentages of email are still the same. Most AV companies are facing the new Sober.P variant, which is really spreading pretty fast these days and is on top of the virus charts as of now, when it comes to being watched. While most businesses/savvy computer users are protected, the virus is said to turn off Symantec's system protection as well as the Windows firewall, so that might mean a huge percentage of home/SOHO users might fall prey to the new strain. It's still being watched.
What about the worm affecting the messengers ie yahoo, etc?
