Microsoft Corp. on Tuesday said it had yet to be affected by a Mydoom-B worm-induced distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack, which anti-virus software companies predicted would be fairly easy for the software company to fend off. Unlike The SCO Group Inc.'s site, which has been assailed by a denial of service (DoS) attack from Mydoom-A worm since Sunday and continues to fight off attacks from both the A and B variant of the Mydoom worm, a Microsoft spokeswoman in the U.K. said that "everything on the Microsoft site seems to be working fine."
