Ok what to do on a virus.....
Mon, 06-09-2003 - 6:11pm
I had an email sent to me called Irish Immigrant, and it apparently had a virus attached

to it(W32.Bugbear.B.Dam). My Nortons came up right away and caught it and removed the virus part and made a back up. Now what the heck do I do with this back up thing. And am I sure it is completely out of my puter? I ran a Nortons scan and it said virus free but when I went online and did a remote scan it said 1 virus found in the system Volume Information .....and that it was that same virus. Now is it because I have that part in the back up or ?

So I go to Nortons and am having a heck of a time understanding what to do, it does not have a removal tool for this virus, just says if you have updated Nortons it catches it, and to be sure to be updated.

Not sure I get this computer stuff very well, and funny thing is I could not see the email anywhere on my puter that it had that name Irish Immigrant

Ok any help from you all?
