Hi,

I am running sbs2000 server with exchange 2000. I have an annoying virus lingering in the e-mail system that I want to get rid of. It is called w32.Netsky.D@mm!enc. I delete it from the system but it still comes back. I have gotten rid of it and it seems to keep on poping up. What do I do? Please explain. I had it with this virus please help.

Most Appreciative,
;.)
 
While you are at it, you should worry more about HOW it got there in the first place!
If it is in a message, delete the message, if it is ON the server and active, your server is unprotected.

If 'something' 'somewhere' gives 'some' error, expect random guesses or no replies at all.

I greatly apprecaite the feed back, but I tried the (netsky@mm.removal.tool) removable tool and it still did not work. Do you have another alternative? this virus is very annoying. Can you please help me out.

And you still don't mention WHERE it is.
Is it actively running on that server, or is it in a mailmessage?
Do you have any decent server version Anti-Virus?
