As an update, SAS does NOT "destroy" Vundo; I had one machine infected with
it & SAS did not even see it; I forget exactly what I did to get rid of it
but I recall trying several "fixes" and it was some obscure piece of
software called "virtumondobegone" that finally took care of it; even the
vaunted "smitfraudfix" & Norton's "fixvundo" couldn't remove it . . .

AVG is a useless piece of software and does nothing, maybe you have just been
lucky so far but i would bet if you ran a real anti virus program it would
find alot, just not norton
