From the article: Mac, Linux and Unix computers are immune to this Microsoft-specific vulnerability.

Win 95 and below may bs so as well .... nothing mentioned on the MS Security pages about them needing any patches.

Check your systems for a file named "msblast.exe" ... if you have it you probably have the "blaster worm" as well.

But the German server (news.uni-berlin.de) is running Apache/1.3.27 (Unix) ....
