Customer Bulletin "September 2003, Cumulative Patch"

[George W Abrahamson]

After downloading the subject patch sent by Microsoft,
Norton SystemWorks 2003 will no longer open. The message
header in the box on the screen is point32.exe - Unable To
Locate DLL after which the following paths are listed:
C:\DELL\DRIVER\IP3.2\Setup\Program;C:\WINNT\system32;
C:\WINNT\system;C:\WINNT;C:\WINNY\system32;
C:\WINNT\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Common
Files\Adaptec Shared\System;C:\PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\AUTODE~1.

Also, a message appears: Error Occurred Memory access
violation in module kernel32 at 5114.21547937. This last
number changes each time Windows is restarted.

Can anyone help this user make the necessary corrections?
Thank you very much!

You have The W32.Swen.A@mm or W32.Gibe.B@mm (Swen/Gibe) virus

According to Symantec Security Response, the worm uses its own SMTP engine to spread itself and
attempts to kill anti-virus and personal firewall programs running on a computer. Swen/Gibe is also
capable of exploiting a known Internet Explorer vulnerability to spread via peer-to-peer networks
like Kazaa and IRC.
