    Bloodhound.Exploit.20 is a heuristic detection for animated cursor(.ani) files that have been designed to exploit the Microsoft Windows Kernel .ani file Parsing and Denial of Service Vulnerability (as described in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS05-002). This exploit does not affect Microsoft Windows XP SP2 Operating Systems.

    read this since ye have norton
