[Jasonchatham]

Hi,

Client has just been told by mcafee that :

c:\winnt\system32\msmsgri32.exe
has been infected by
w32.slanper.worm.gen

and mcafee has deleted this file.

What is or was it, please anyone ?

So is the file msmsgri32.exe a windows 2000 file or just a file created by the worm ????
