FYI,

Symantec is calling this virus Backdoor.Xebiz.  They rate it a cat 1 
virus.  Definitions were released on 7/13/04. We have been updating 
definition files every night.

Thanks

Tim

McAfee, and several news outlets, are reporting the spread of this 
trojan horse.  Info at 
http://us.mcafee.com/virusInfo/default.asp?id=description&virus_k=126681

One of the entries at McAfee is that blocking genmexe.biz prevents 
dowloading the trojan.  Has anyone seen an ip address for this url?
