Hi peterat45
 
Welcome to the Communiktgy Forums.
 
As WSA protects aginst malware, which is the umbrella term for a number of nasties including worms, and because this specific worm has been around a while I would say 'Yes'.
 
But may I ask as to why you are asking?
 
Regards, Baldrick

Your saying Koobface right and did WSA remove it? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koobface if not Submit a Support Ticket for a Security Check to make sure your clean!
 
Thanks,
