Not worked. That's for 2008 version of the Virus. The 2010 is very hard to remove. Windows Recovery, fixmbr.exe ..Symantec fixmebroot.exe ...ect .. do not work. Reformat the whole drive does not work either. So far, only Symantec newest virus file detects the new version. I tried McAfee Total Protection, AVG, Malwares, rootkit detection cannot detect it yet. Be careful. It steals id and bank accounts, install keylogger to steal info from your computer
