WARNING: Another virus making rounds
Norton intercepted a virus on my computer last night that was in a windows TEMP file called tisland.xix.bat.
The virus was -- W32.sircam.worm@mm
I later deleted it from quarantine, followed by a clean sweep of all files for viruses, which turned up zero.
Computer--so far so good.
Then I got this E-mail
This virus has been wreaking havoc all over the web. Read about it at:
http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.sircam.worm@mm.html
Just to be safe, I followed the instructions for virus removal, which included the downloading of a removal file--no infection was found.
As of 7-28-01, this virus has been moved up to a level 4 threat--very dangerous--can delete all files and directories on your C drive.
Keep your virus program up to date people--every week min.
Skies,
Dave Brownell
