In Response To: Re: Virus question/answer ()

Apparently, he already opened the file since it's sending itself out to people he sends an e-mail to. One of the things this virus does is block access to the various Anti Virus websites so you cannot get the new DAT files from the URL Tom Leggio posted. I will copy & paste the contents of the web page & send it to you via e-mail if you would like me to. Just post a message to this board.

PS Norton's website says the following about removing this particular virus:

"This is a complex and difficult virus to remove. It alters system files and on
some systems these files cannot be repaired. In some cases, after attempting
to repair the virus, you will not be able to start Windows until you restore the
needed system files from the original Windows installation CD. This document
assumes that you are familiar with basic Windows and DOS procedures. If
you are not, we suggest that you obtain the services of a qualified computer
consultant."
