* This is the modus mailing list * Hi Cary and Lapo,
This may be explained by the fact that this virus is blocked by a new virus definition. If, for any reason, your AV definitions were out of synchronization with Vircom's it is possible that we were blocking it while you weren't. For example, any temporary network connectivity problem with the Vircom auto-update site or a too long AV auto-update frequency would explain this. As of this moment, if you have the latest update (use the Update Now button) your system should block this particular virus. If it does not, I recommend you contact support immediately.
