Well I just found the Nimda virus in my system. My anti-virus did not
detect it, but my C,D,E drives were all fully publicly shared and I had EML
files all over my drive. I manually removed all infected files, but I read
that Nimda can send itself out using my address book. So just a warning to
those out there who I have had contact with. Symantec does have a removal
tool, but it's quite easy to remove it manually. To check look into
MSCONFIG, check the System.ini tab, view all the boot commands, look for
shell=explorer.exe. If it says something to the effect of,
load.exe -dontrunold then you have Nimda.
