F-Secure has finally released a fixtool for Cabir. It weighs in at about 11KB. Kapsersky still wins on size. :) The purpose of Thumb encoding is to reduce size with a tradeoff in speed.
Considering this is a fixtool speed is not that important. The tool does make it clear that it just removes Cabir from your system and it is not a general AV scanner.
Other fixtools are also available, as mentioned previously.
F-Secure's tool is available in two packages, with instructions or separately.
