The Sasser worm infects Windows 2000/XP computers but it can still run on Windows 95/98/Me computers. Two notible side-affects of the virus are significant performance loss (slow computer) and computer randomly restarting.

The Beagle worm infects Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP/Server 2003 and has many variants, W32.Beagle.X@mm being one of the lastest. The worm has its own built in SMTP engine, therefore, the virus can spread to other computers via email or network shares without your knowledge. The virus finds email addresses by searching your computer and any mapped drives you may have. The email's From, Subject, Body, and attachment vary and the attachment may also vary in file extension but a .zip extension is most common. more info
