| Description | This is a virus detection. Viruses are programs that self-replicate recursively, meaning that infected systems spread the virus to other systems, which then propagate the virus further. While many viruses contain a destructive payload, it's quite common for viruses to do nothing more than spread from one system to another. |

| Attack | According to McAfee Resolution: Use specified engine and DAT files for detection and removal. Infected systems should be removed from the network and repaired prior to placing them back on to the network. Failure to do so can results in further infections. As this threat seeks open shares, turn off full share to your system. If you have to use shares, use password protection to avoid being a future target.
