Bugs and Fixes
In Brief: Worm Weaves Through Outlook
Symantec recently warned Microsoft Outlook users about the potential for damage from a troublemaker known as W32.Prolin.Worm. The worm spreads via Outlook by e-mailing itself to everyone in the program's address book. The e-mail comes in with the subject line 'A great Shockwave flash movie', with the worm attached as 'Creative.exe'. W32.Prolin.Worm can mess up your files by renaming and moving all of the .jpg, .mp3, and .zip files in your local hard drive. The W32.Prolin.Worm goes by other names as well, including Troj_Shockwave.A, Creative, and Troj_Prolin.A. For specific instructions on how to steer clear of the worm--and how to remove it should it slither into your PC--go to Symantec's Security Updates page and select W32.Prolin.Worm.
