If you look on the Stinger web page at the list of targeted infectors it will NOT show the
W32/Sdbot worm but will show the Sircam. However, if you execute STINGER.EXE v2.5.2 (the
current version) and click on "list viruses" it will show the W32/Sdbot worm but will not
show the Sircam.

To add to this, on Feb 18, '05 the W32/Bropia worm was added as noted by an AVERT email
received on that date and when the v4430 DAT files were released for; W32/Bropia.worm.p.
Now when you execute STINGER.EXE v2.5.2 and click on "list viruses" it will show the
W32/Bropia worm. However if you go to the web page; http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/ and
examine the targeted listing the W32/Bropia worm is NOT listed.

A post to the McAfee Forums was made on this topic and AVERT Labs has been sent an email as
well.
