Did you ever comepletely resolve this issue? I've been having this problem for months now, and still have not been able to clean this virus. Suggestions?Originally Posted by LanceMcHatton
Yes, the last message I posted was the fix. Have you tried fixing it with anti-virus software? If so, what software?Originally Posted by vpoon
Our office just started getting this virus. Our intivirus software detected it.
What antivirus software are you using? We are using Trend and it detected it too. But finding it is not the issue, how do we get rit of it?
Here is some instructions from Symantec for deleting the virus. But this is not acceptable when I am dealing with 250 users. We need a better solution.
1. Disable System Restore (Windows Me/XP).
2. Close all running instances of AutoCAD.
3. Update the virus definitions.
4. Run a full system scan and delete all the files detected.
5. Remove the entry added by the virus from acad.lsp in AutoCAD's Support folder (optional).

That's exactly what we've been doing for the last 5 months, but that won't resolve the problem permenately right?

I have reading the code that lance posted and you can stop the function that do the nasty writing by adding this (setq writeapp nil ) last in your startup routine.
You can also erase all acad.lsp that is not in AutoCADs search path.

The program read line by line from (findfile "acad.lsp") or (findfile "acadapp.lsp")
and write line by line to "current drawing location" acad.lsp
that acad.lsp is executed when you open a drawing in that location, kind of clever...
If your system acad.lsp is in a network read only location you can use Windows Search File "acad.lsp" and erase all that is not in AutoCADs search path.
Open (findfile "acad.lsp") and (findfile "acadapp.lsp") in AutoCADs search path
and remove the entry added by the virus.
maybe that will do the trick.
