SOBIG-F DISINFECTION TOOL AVAILABLE FROM SOPHOS
Sophos researchers have developed a standalone tool
which detects and disinfects the commonly encountered
W32/Sobig-F worm.
Sophos originally issued protection against the
W32/Sobig-F worm at 10:37 GMT on Tuesday 19 August.
This utility provides a simple way for businesses
and home users to confirm their networks are clean
and disinfect any infected files that are found.
You can download the disinfection tool and documentation
from Sophos's website at:

If you have not already protected against W32/Sobig-F,
Sophos strongly recommends you update all installations of
Sophos Anti-Virus in your company.
Update your corporate anti-virus software now so that
you can detect and prevent the W32/Sobig-F worm. If you
do not have procedures for rapid updates, implement them
now, because you are sure to need them again. Sophos
Enterprise Manager is one way to help automate protection
updates inside your company. More details are availble at:

notification of every new virus found in the wild.
http://www.sophos.com/virusinfo/infofeed/If possible, block all Windows programs at your email gateway.
Some email applications can be configured to do this. It is
rarely necessary to allow users to receive programs via email.
There is so little to lose, and so much to gain, simply by
blocking all mailed-in programs, regardless of whether they
contain viruses or not. Sophos MailMonitor for SMTP contains
pro-active threat reduction technology which can help you
block dangerous filetypes and executable code at the email
gateway. More details are available at:
http://www.sophos.com/products/mm/Sophos also recommends companies consider adding Sophos's free
virus infofeed to their public websites or intranet to keep
their users informed of the very latest virus threats. The
feeds are simple to add and easy to configure, ensuring you
always have up-to-the-minute information.
