You need to get the 4174 DATs to catch it and of course McAfee FTP servers are hammered! Use ftp:/ftpeur.nai.com and manually download the sdat-4174.zip. You will then have to manually apply it to your Exchange server, witch is major PITA by itself. See in FAQs on www.mcafeeb2b.com for "Why are all attachments being blocked?" question on instructions how to do it. Feel free to email me with any questions.

Even though I already had the latest dat installed, and all my services are running, two instances of this virus made it through. Thankfully I don't trust GS, and I sent out a warning and my users actually read it, and acted on it. Any idea why GS might not be catching them? Everything looks like it's set up properly. I caught all the Badtrans viruses last week. -----Original Message----- From: Dennis Atherton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 3:27 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: *** Warning *** New Virus - W32.goner.a@mm Download and save the file sarcx86.exe, and then execute it on the system to be updated. -----Original Message----- From: MHR(Michael Ross) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 11:50 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: *** Warning *** New Virus - W32.goner.a@mm Which file do you grab from there???????? -----Original Message----- From: Philip Youngworth [ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ] Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 1:37 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: *** Warning *** New Virus - W32.goner.a@mm You can get the sarc update from their ftp server. ftp://ftp2.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/antivirus_definitions/norto <ftp://ftp2.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/antivirus_definitions/nort o> n_antivirus/specdef You should be able to grab the sarc there for it. -----Original Message----- From: Cicerrella, Steve [ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ] Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 2:24 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: *** Warning *** New Virus - W32.goner.a@mm Seeing this one already. I have not found a patch for "Norton for Exchange" yet. Already sent a broadcast to the users pleading with them to use some common sense and explicitly telling them NOT to open that one. I wonder how many of them will open it anyway.. ;) Steve -----Original Message----- From: Briggs, Bruce [ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ] Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 10:41 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: *** Warning *** New Virus - W32.goner.a@mm Just in case you are not aware yet, there is a new virus out there. Lots of incoming infected mail here, right now. We got an automatic update this morning for Antigen which is protecting us.
