Virus W32.Sircam.Worm@mm
July 20, 2001 by admin Filed under Mikes posts
I recieved two viruses today, one was the HaHaHaHA virus, Norton AntiVirus Email protection caught and fixed it. The other was the W32.Sircam.Worm@mm Virus, Norton did not catch this one, because I had not yet updated my Virus protection Definitions, I openned it thinking it was something it wasn’t, I did not know the worm had infected my Computer until Zone Alarm asked me if Sirc32.exe could connect to the internet, I clicked NO and updated Norton and ran a scan, sure enough I was infected. Norton cleaned it, but I had to fix some Registry entries before I could access any programs on my Computer. So update those Virus Definitions and don’t open Email attachments. Mine was a .doc file, as soon as Word opened it, the worm installed itself. Go to my Virus page for more info.
