Free Update Thwarting Klez.e

January 1, 2002
In connection with the numerous instances of infection caused by the latest modification of the Internet worm Klez (Klez.e), Kaspersky Lab has developed a free utility for detecting and deleting this malicious program. Upon starting-up this utility, Kaspersky Lab recommends closing all user applications. After the computer has been rebooted, an anti-virus scanner should be used and all remaining infected files should be deleted. We also recommend not using e-mail preview options during this epidemic. You can download the CLRAV utility here.
