    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 For more information http://www.europe.f-secure.com/nimda/nimda.shtml
