Default April 1 worm?

So I saw this warning about the April 1st worm.
http://tech.yahoo.com/blogs/null/128643
yahoo suggested that I scan my computer at microsoft here
http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/download.htm

however, the scan doesn't work for Vista and suggested I down load a scan program.
problem is the link doesn't include a program
I tried searching in the computer sub-forum but didn't find anything.
Any suggestion?

Moderators: I asked this question here b/c I feel that many forum members may be affected by this problem and since few people visit the computer sub-forum that we need to get the word out. Thanks.

Saw this on 60 minutes. I thought the 14 yr old hackers in Russia were more interesting! Oh, and LBJ makin that underhand shot from backcourt.

On a more serious note - this little thing is a nasty bugger.
