The Symantec AntiVirus Research Center (SARC) announces detection for
the first Excel Macro Virus, XM.Laroux. SARC Researchers have been
working on this virus from the minute it arrived at the Center. As
with all SARC solutions, you need only download a single file to
update any of the Norton AntiVirus products.
The definition update (new virus fingerprint database) is packaged in
our Intelligent Updater so that users need only download the single
file, and then run it. Intelligent Updater will take care of the
rest, regardless of the PC platform be it DOS, Windows 3.x, Windows
95 or Windows NT. As always, these downloads are free.
For proper detection of viruses in Excel spreadsheets, users must add
the extension .XL? to the program file lists. Please see your NAV
User's Guide for full instructions on how to make these additions.
