VBS.LoveLetter.CD - Removal

Current virus definitions detect this worm as VBS.LoveLetter.Variant. If an attachment is detected as infected with VBS.LoveLetter.Variant, it should be deleted.

Virus definitions that detect this variant with the new variant name, VBS.LoveLetter.CD, will be available in the next definition update to be released on February 14, 2001. To obtain the new definition earlier than that date, if you suspect a file is infected with VBS.LoveLetter.CD, you can submit the file to SARC using Scan & Deliver (submit the file from Norton AntiVirus Quarantine).

Corporate customers can also obtain Spec Definitions (Beta definitions that have not yet been through the full testing process) from their usual sources. (This is not necessary for most users. Current definitions will protect you from this threat; run LiveUpdate to obtain the most recent virus definitions.)
