RE: Computer worm brewing

And why are they (Symantec) not going to help you Kitty? 

Seriously, you should contact them. Shorten version of a very long story....
My mothers computer was infected a few years back. After contacting them,
explaining, they actually emailed the fix for her system so I could install
it. (it was one of those nasty virus that blocked getting to their site)

They were very helpful and had a great customer service group... I was
impressed!
