And just to make it clear, yes, VIPRE does protect against Mebroot.    If you 
search our site, it's listed as Anserin, Sinowal or Mebroot.

The search would be off of sunbeltsecurity.com, not our main site.

VIPRE 3.1 or VIPRE 4.0 should both handle this with ease. If you're concerned, 
sending the threat to 
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> will ensure 
it's in our definitions.  Please be sure to zip it and password-protect it.

I've had a couple of Vipre clients get hit with the fake Windows Security 
software in the past while.  Any word if the new version of Vipre will rectify 
this?

It does not say if it is removed., or how to remove it. Are Vipre users 
protected, or is this just informational?

Is this monster back? The University of South Carolina issued a warning to its' 
users this morning saying it was undetectable and was causing them trouble. I 
looked on Sunbelt's site, and in my threat database, and lo and behold, I do 
not see anything on it. Maybe it is too early in the day. I thought this was 
out last year and had a definition for it.
Does Vipre, or any of the others catch it? After Konficker, we are getting 
panicky here.
