Please immediately ensure your anti-virus software is properly updated, and then run a full-system virus scan on your computer(s). Follow the removal instructions for any viruses found, as indicated by your anti-virus software.
Additional information and removal instructions about viruses and your anti-virus software may be found on the website of your anti-virus software manufacturer.
It is difficult to verify the presence of an exact virus which has infected a computer without a full system scan with up-to-date anti-virus software. Therefore, you may wish to contact the Technical Support Department of your anti-virus software manufacturer, should you need assistance with this process, or have any questions or concerns about a possible virus infection.
Please be aware of the importance in taking immediate actions to stop further virus related activity. If you are unable to take immediate action, it would be advisable to remove the computer(s) which may be infected from any networks and the Internet connection until it has been properly cleaned. For DSL customers, this may be easily done by unplugging the network cable that connects the computer to the DSL modem, or the telephone line that connects the DSL modem to the telephone jack.
