The clock ticks over to 364 days because he adds one year (making it 365 days) just before the countdown would have zeroed- the second it did, 365 turns into 364. And it is indeed epic.

LOL. I do tech support at a large university and was working the day Sasser came out a couple years ago. I discovered this trick a couple days into the ordeal which helped us out quite a bit. Classic stuff :)

For who those that dont know, Windows xp is based on these 3 operating systems. Windows NT, Windows ME, and 2000. thats how i think windows xp professional was built basically. Cause NTFS came from windows NT, System restore came from ME, the password ecryption came from windows 2000. the themes and others were added on origianlly.

A quick fix I suppose. I'd be more worried about the virus still active in the system. I've personally never experienced this error, nor had the virus that causes lsass to crash. I'd prefer if my computer clock had the correct time as well. Fix the computer and the lsass problem from the source.
