Just to let you all know, a member of our department opened the
attachment she received, and her hard drive was infected. I
downloaded the latest DAT files and ran VirusScan on her hard drive,
and it failed to find anything. The Sircam virus was just discovered
last week. Tac Lo at WHS advised me to go to Symantec to get their
removal tool, and that seems to have done the trick.
