How do I remove the JS.Menger.Worm from Messenger

Norton by default will have quarantined that file open norton to your reports and view the quarantined items and delete then run norton again thru you system – also you have the option to send the file for anaylsis ( good idea ) if Norton doesnt have anything for it as it will make them aware of it. Also microsoft have a patch available
