AV software is only as good as its definitions.

 

Check out Symantec?s web site for removal instructions.

Viruses such as these are only of risk if they're executed by your mail client. 
Outlook 2003 doesn't allow this by default (you need to save the file first), 
am I right to feel complacent? Of course I do have AV on the mail gateway, I'm 
just polling to see how confident fellow admins are with Outlook 2003's. Is it 
taking steps in the right direction to protect the use from viruses such as 
this?

There is a new virus spreading rapidly. The AV vendors are working on it.

 

This one is going to be bad, as it is using zip attachments as well as pif, scr 
and exe.

 

Be prepared.
