The little freeware application Windows Worms Door Cleaner has a very strange name if you ask me. It´s purpose is to disable certain services that worms rely on to attack your system.
Most of the worms, in particular the most famous, use known vulnerabilities in Windows services which are enabled by default and that often can’t be disabled via the OS’s configuration.
Even with these services patched with Microsoft security fixes, they are still exposed to the Internet at large ready to be exploited by the next exploit.
