Very well:

find it here: http://www.antivirus.com (the Trend Micro site)
look for SIRCAM in the search box.

As for trusting tools sent by E-mail: you're right that it's generally not a good idea. (That doesn't mean the file I attached is not trustworthy, though).

Greetz!

Ronald

Hello all,

If you've opened the attachment that came with the mail below, you've been infected with the SIRCAM trojan horse.
I have attached a fix tool from Trend Micro (propriety software - sorry folks but I think this kinda supersedes personal objections to such) to fix it.

Please keep it around in case you get the mail below again (might be in Spanish), and reply with sending this file - I've received this trojan at least ten times already.

Greetz!
