Re: Help with Nimda.E?

I also had a similar situation (less workstations infected, though). First,
try to patch all the mashines, with the help of hotfix scanning tool from
Shavlik/Microsoft:

http://download.microsoft.com/download/win2000platform/Utility/3.2/NT45/EN-U
S/nshc32.exe

Then you should try nimdascn.exe from McAfee (this is the only one that
completely cleaned my machines):

daScn

This combination helped me, can't say it's 100% the best, but it's worth a
try.

Wish you luck,
