It seems as though the Redmond software giant was pretty much on the money when they underestimated the Kama Sutra threat that was posed to strike on February 3rd. The widely reported malware was set to overwrite infected users files last week, but according to most observers, it did little damage.
According to Stephen Toulouse, security program manager with Microsoft's security response centre, the worm’s had seemingly little effect in the US and Canada. Microsoft's toll-free virus support hotline (1-866-PCSAFETY
in the US and Canada) did not receive as many phone calls as they had expected. "It's a little early to fully understand the impact, but right now we and the antivirus partners are not seeing any widespread impact from this," Toulouse added. "It shows us that that guidance is starting to take hold."

However, I did not hear of anybody had problem with this virus here.
