Installing the Microsoft security patch will prevent W32/Bugbear-B and similar viruses from running automatically when viewed. Keep up-to-date with the latest Microsoft security patches by subscribing to the Microsoft security bulletin and visit Windows Update regularly. If your IT policy allows, you may want to set up scheduled Windows Update access. This can be enabled with later versions of Windows via the Control Panel. Follow safe computing practices.
