    Each AV vendor has a specific naming convention so you will need to submit a sample to Symantec for them to tell you.

    Hi SymQNA,

    Thanks for the post.

    I have a client infected virus which can be detected by SEP

    Check the Risk Logs to learn the detection name and hash of the file. From your brief description, it sounds like a W97M.Downloader.
