304936 2004-12-18 01:20:00 The current Nortons lists all the W32.G... versions. Run your Norton again. Is Housecall picking up the Norton heuristic line ?? TonyF (246)

304940 2004-12-18 01:32:00 Nortons recognises a virus through picking up a match with what is in its virus database. Maybe House call is spotting that. Where does Housecall say the infected file is located ? Do run your Nortons again. If it says all clear, then maybe relax. TonyF (246)

304943 2004-12-18 01:43:00 Give Stinger a run as that will detect Mimail and the gaobot.l is listed as a variant of that worm. Failing that try Avast! Cleaner (www.avast.com) for the same.

Don't forget that you will have to disable System Restore to purge out anything contained in there. Also clear out the temp files, etc, etc.

Might pay to put the computer through the works listed in the Spyware/Virus FAQ as well.
