Hello,
I have Norton Internet Security 2003 installed. I run Windows XP Home Edition SP1. I repeatedly get a msecurity alert from Norton that it has detected and blocked an intrusion attempt. The intruder is my computer and my IP address. The Intrusion is a MS_Windows_LSASS_RPC_DS_Request. It attacks the microsoft-ds(445) port.
I have ran a virus scan and nothing comes up. I have also patched the pc from the links provded on Symantec's site at: http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcen...DS_Request.html (http://\"http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/attack_sigs/sigs/MS_Windows_LSASS_RPC_DS_Request.html\")
I have also ran Ad-Aware to get rid of any data mioners and other such junk. I have a program a2 (A-Squared) to look for Malware, but nothing comes up. Yet I still get the intrusion alert.
Several questions:
1. Could these programs be missing something? (NOrton and the anti-malware software all missed another .exe on my pc called dickface8932.exe once which I had to delete from the systems folder and a registry entry.)
1a. If so does any one have any info on what this problem is and how to fix it?
2. If this is not a malware or some sort of virus, what is it and how can I fix the thing so the alert does not come up every few seconds?
Thanks for any help or info.

that is not a virus
a hacker is trying to acces your computer
that is an exploit

You'll find a lot of info on this on the Symantec site. They also give a link to the Microsoft page where you can download the patch to prevent this intrusion.
The Symantec site is here:
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcen...DS_Request.html (http://\"http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/nis_ids/sigs/MS_Windows_LSASS_RPC_DS_Request.html\")
They have listed the vulnerable operating systems on this page, and have given links to each one by OS and by service pack number.

I am also having the same problem with the windows xp sp2. I had 58 attacks from MS_Windows_LSASS_RPC_DS_Request and the MS_RPC_DCOM_Buffer_Overflow on Jan 31st. I haven't been able to locate a patch for the MS_RPC_DCOM_Buffer_Overflow at all and there wasn't a patch for the other one for Windows sp2. Please let me know of anything if you find it. Thanks.
