Just had this pop up my PC....



End of the world? Not had a virus before (had them intercepted before though).... Have downloaded the lastest defs but the symantec site doesn't have any info on this particular one. Will do a full scan shortly....

Any of you IT boffins know the answer?

You should be fine, if in doubt try sending the file mentioned over to us using htt://www.webimmune.net

Quite bizarre....clicked OK on the NAV window (above) and it came up again about 20 times with different files all infected with Nimda blah blah (variants on the above). Wierd thing was, I couldn't find any of the files it refered to; for example, the .eml file refered to above doesn't exist.....or at least I can't find it (no hidden files etc)

?

Couldn't possibly comment on the quality of other vendors software.

isn't .eml some kindof email attachment? so maybe your emails are carrying the virus.
