attached mail follows:
F-Secure has made a Nimda removal tool available to everyone.
We have packaged it in two different packages, one standalone utility and
one policymanager utility.
Both can be received by sending an email to either:
* nimdafix@f-secure.com (standalone tool) or
* nimdafixnet@f-secure.com (policymanager tool), if web downloading is
too slow.
F-Nimda is a utility that disinfects a computer infected with Nimda
virus-worm and eliminates security holes that Nimda creates in a system.
The utility is supplied either as a self-extracting archive or as a signed
JAR package. The utility can run on Windows NT/2000 workstations
and servers, Windows 95, 98 and ME workstations. On NT/2000 workstations and
servers the utility requires local administrator's rights.
It is recommended to disconnect a system from a network while disinfecting
Nimda. After the F-Nimda utility finishes its job, it is needed
to reboot a system. If Nimda infection is in a network, it is recommended to
disinfect all workstations and servers and only then re-enable
the network.
If you have Windows ME (Millenium Edition) it is highly recommended to
disable 'AutoRestore' feature in it or a system might get re-infected
shortly after you clean Nimda infection
