Hit our shop computer yesterday. My laptop and home desktop are ok. How do I get rid of it? A srceen comes up telling me what to do but I only have a few seconds before I am shut down. Pardon my being computer dumb,but how can I fix it online if I can't stay online?

I posted a warning about this virus yesterday and posted a link with instructions.

You need to get it out of your registry key, then do the microsoft critical updates.

Go to the DOS prompt (C:/) and type FORMAT C: /S

PM or post your email address and i will send you a tool to get rid of it.

You can access your email from a non-affected machine, and save this tool to a floppy, then take the floppy over to the affected machine and run the fix.

E-mail address is [email protected]. Thanks

I got it yesterday. It took me 5 hours to get rid of it. I didn't know what it was until I saw it on the news last night. Every time I booted up I got a message that the PC was signing off with Windows /System 32/Isass.exe.
It seemed like if I disconnected my cable internet my PC would stay up longer so I did this, then did a system restore back 2 days, then rebooted, ran virus scan and whala ...... 2 viruses found. Then went to www.microsoft.com and downloaded the fix.

How do these *******s get off on this ****? Dave

You got mail.

That will only cost you a low, low price of a 353 with 575's.

Thanks for your business.

Funny you should ask. Traded yesterday for a 2001 353 with 575's and Stelling boxes.
