Well if you have NAV already that should remove the virus anyway without the nedd to use the separate program. Symantec only supply them tools if you don't already have a virus killer. But if you have a virus killer like NAV running in the background how did it allow you to run the program in the first place? - unless you said ignore to the twenty-odd warning screens first!
Btw - Warning to anyone who is using the F-Prot virus killer. This virus killer doesn't recognise the Badtrans virus (I saved the virus to my hard disk last night f-prot couldn't find it, but the badtrans removal tool found one file infected and deleted it - I've just e-mailed f-prot support about this one, with a copy of the file) Also it seems BadTrans is really doing the rounds at the moment. This is the 4th time this week I've had this virus sent me via e-mail (3 times from one mailing list that doesn't allow attachments - it collected everyone's e-mail address that had sent stuff to the mailing list and sent them out personally (and added the mailing lists [DEAF UK] to the subject - fooling people into thinking it had come from the list), 2 of them were from people who'd opened the original e-mail, and run it. And this one from MSX mailing list (at least I know how to deal with attachments so I don't get infected :)) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Pedro Giebels Sent: 17 December 2001 23:45 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: The virus solution - If you got this virus or are unsure READ THIS E-MAIL for Free virus removal from Symantec > Here is the answer Pedro a good freeware scanner (badtrans removal tool!) - > also available from there is Norton AntiVirus I have Norton antivirus 2002 already.
