I got an email from a TC member that a virus appeared to come to him from me. I update my Norton and run it every day now. I re-ran my Norton and even went to Norton's site and did a manual download of their fix for this virus, and ran my system again and its clean.
Im guessing someone in TC who has my email address in their address book, got the virus and its going out to others with my email or other TC members email addresses to perhaps. Please clean your systems with your anti virus software, DAILY. These days it only takes one persons email to infect others so easily.

I just spent two days trying to get that stinking trojan off my system. It is also known as PE_Bagle.N and W32_Bagle.N. My Norton AV DID NOT catch this. The only AV/anti-trojan I found capable of removing it entirely is the link below - it's free (No, I don't work for them - this is not a sales ad!).

Do a web scan. Make sure you select all drives and check the "Auto Clean" box. It will be able to clean some files but you will have to delete others so, have your restore disk handy.

If you are wondering whether or not you have it, open you task manager and see if "winupd.exe" is running. If it is, you're infected. You could also try running "regedit." If you're infected it won't allow regedit to open.

Good luck.

Ps. The trojan contains it's own outgoing mail server and spoofs addresses. That's how it spreads.
