Did an up-to-date AV program protect computers against the Blaster attack on Windows XP?
Or did a firewall other than the built-in XP version offer protection?
Or did only the Microsoft Patch provide protection?
PS Would a new computer bought now, with XP pre-loaded, be susceptible to Blaster when it is first plugged into the Internet, ie, before the owner could download XP patches, or receive virus definition updates?
