Alternatively go to www.norton.com and download the worm_bugbear.a 
to remove!
Sorry for the inconvenience!!!

  Apologies to those who don't have this problem 
  from Batchelor's previous mail--
   
  If you opened Adams mail and the attachment 
  automatically ran, you now have the Bugbear A worm.  You need to delete 
  three files to clean your machine (assuming the worm always gives the same 
  names to its files- I'm not quite computer savvy enough to know about 
  that...):
   
  c:\windows\system\FTFY.exe
  c:\windows\system\lvlgpfg.dll
  c:\windows\start menu\Programs\Start 
  Up\csc.exe
   
  Delete the third file listed above first, then 
  restart the machine in MS DOS mode and delete the others.  You cannot 
  delete the first two files from Windows, as Windows runs them when it starts 
  itself.
   
  You can get more info/help by using the free 
  online scan from Trend Micro at housecall.antivirus.com  Be aware that 
  the download time for the virus catalogue can be more than 20 minutes the 
  first time you use it.  After that, it only updates the catalogue, so it 
  is a much quicker process.
   
  Hope this helps if you need it-
