RE: Win32.Sircam.Worm Alert.....

["Chris Freels" <cfreels () gracenote com>]

I have been seeing this virus come through my Exchange 2000 server for
the last week.  The first day I saw the alert I was receiving it.  I am
running McAfee Groupshield for Exchange 2000 SP1 and it is working just
fine.  I have not gotten one infected machine.  We are running scan
engine 4140 with the latest DAT.

FYI:

Using Symantec's NAV for Exchange (Virus def: 7/18/01 12:00am) has been
successful for us in detecting and moving to quarantine all Sircam
infected
messages that have been sent to our server.

Yesterday the worm infected 3 of our systems. Just to test I downloaded
it,
save it a specific folder and scanned it with Norton's (using the latest
defs) and to my suprise it did not pick it up.
The fix Symantec has:

Did find the worm and repair it.
