I got it, and spend the better part of the evening to try to sort it out from the wrong end.
I thought it was my new v.92 modem's put-dialup-on-hold feature that somehow spooked up, since just when the worm crashed me, a friend called.
Don't forget to use firewall and antivirus (I didn't)

Seemed OK for me. Don't know much about these things, but would my recently installed ADSL router have helped in this case?DM says: Crunch with Matrox Users@ClimatePrediction.netComment
