    The defs that will detect this were posted at 6:00 pm est onFriday, so if you downloaded them earlier, thenyou won't have this sig.
    
    While Symantec had beta defs available earlier in the day, you have to get them from a different location....

    Just an update, the Symantec defs file that will take care of this has
    changed, I have August 1st 2003 Ver 6 downloaded and this worm is still not
    in the defs file list.  The latest on the website is:
    ----------------------------
    Virus definitions with a version number of 50801r, also known as August 1,
    2003 rev 18, or greater will detect this threat.
