how to make a worm commit suicide

This posting alludes to a rather amusing scenario; apparently there's a worm doing the rounds of Windows boxes called "fizzer", which is programmed to check into a geocities web page for updates to itself. Some enterprising people have taken over the page and posted an uninstaller for the worm to the exact URL the worm uses.
