I'm running XP Pro with all the SPs, ZoneAlarm Pro and NIV 2005. I had just
downloaded and installed NIV 2005 after doing a full virus/worm scan, when I
got notice that backdoor-g-1 (1243) had been blocked and then something
about TCP (I use a cable modem and router) and then ViaVoice\bin\engine.exe.

All this is Greek to me.

I wasn't using voice activated software at the time but there is a dictation
button for ViaVoice in my Word 2000.

So, like, do I need to do anything? I ran Spyware and Adware and didn't
come up with anything, and another virus scan came up clean. According to
Norton this is a really old worm. Do I need to look in ViaVoice to see if
anything exists there?
