What would constitute an unusally high CPU reading?

Well I got it... I am running 2000Pro on Dial-Up and I am running 3 firewall programs, it still got through without my knowledge. I checked to see if I had it after reading a different FR thread that was posted about it, sure enough it was on my system. I had to update my virus scan software and it detected it and then removed it for me.

Do a file search for for MSBlaster.exe and see if it pops up, if it does update your virus software and run it. If you have it but do not have a virus protector, go to http://www.grisoft.com and download the free version of AVG, after you download it, run the software update for it and it will install the latest updates for it, then run AVG for a full virus check (after you have downloaded the software and updated it) and it will detect it and remove it for you.

I had it on my system and my computer was "not" shutting down like other people who also had it. My computer was operating fine, but I decided to check for it and sure enough it was there.

One article on news.google.com says port 134. Another says port 4444. Recorded tons & tons of hits on port 2034 since a couple of days ago. What's the straight dope?

Port 137 is getting pounded on my machine.
