另外微软还发布了基因码检测（genericsignature）信息来帮助用户对付这些漏洞，它的名称是Exploit:Win32/Apptom.gen，通常这些攻击文件将阻止用户打开Windows Live OneCare或者Forefront Client Security软件。
We are also releasing today a generic signature to protect our customers against these exploits. Its name is Exploit:Win32/Apptom.gen.
SCN9A是一种基因的名称，一种蛋白质的代码。这种蛋白质让神经信号的传导通道长久地保持活性，结果是传递了更多的痛觉信号。
One gene, known as SCN9A, codes for a protein that allows the channels along which nerve signals are transmitted to remain active for longer and thus transmit more pain signals.
