Be careful. There are some sites out there that claim to help you find out if you have the worm- and they are actually set up to infect you with it when you go to the site and start clicking around following instructions. I wouldn't trust any site other than well known sites such as Microsoft.com or Symantic.com, or other well known anti-virus sites.
The best defense?- keep your OS updated with security updates, and keep a good anti-virus program updated and running in the background at all times. A firewall too.
