Re: Security Alert -- CERT Advisory on NIMDA virus

Norton has a free test/cleaner tool available at

http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.nimda.a@xxxxxxx

I d/l'ed it as a precaution and have added it to my scheduler to run
automatically twice a day.

I haven't needed it so far although I did get hit twice by Nimda.  Once I
think was from Deutsche Bank's Ed Yardeni web page. Fortunately my Norton AV
programme apparently caught both attacks.

FWIW, I've increased the frequency of my automatic full system virus
scanning in light of 5 different attacks from two different viruses in the
past 3 days.
