I see the Civil 3D <a href="http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/dl/item?siteID=123112&id=15412532&linkID=9240698" rel="nofollow">2009</a> and <a href="http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/dl/item?siteID=123112&id=15407692&linkID=9240698" rel="nofollow">2010</a> open/save fixes are now available, so I guess the 2011 one can't be too far away. In addition to providing a cleanup mechanism, it's important to ensure that the source is also removed by fixing the templates. Is that part of the plan? Although Civil 3D is one source of the "infestation", it would appear to not be the only one. Also, users of AutoCAD-based broducts other than Civil 3D are going to have to clean up the problem drawings. Can you please check with your colleagues to see if the other AutoCAD variants are going to be similarly fixed? Dana, thanks.

There is no acad.vlx to clean up. There is just a bad template file provided with Civil 3D 2011 that provides a warning that includes mention of the virus. That's why I put "virus" in quotation marks. http://www.unnecessaryquotes.com/ Misha, thanks for trying, but that has nothing to do with this problem. There is no acad.vlx to clean up.

For all releases you will need to open the drawing files with the fixes, save and upon reopen the Missing Language Pack dialog will no longer appear.

Its not a ANZ specific error as we get it in the States as well. I know our custom template has the error, and I am in the process of installing and removing the error. Matt Steve -
