According to this website:

It's a worm.
Sorry, found another link with a better solution:

Anyway, it seems like the MBlaster worm.Last edited by Amok; 02-08-2004, 09:15 AM.

Don't worry guys, I/someone from down my corridor fixed it! Apparently windows restarts itself after 20mins if you don't have a firewall enabled, nice to know it cares!Originally posted by Facetiousedit: (Money just PMed me his address so I can go to Houston and fight him)

It is indeed a worm cundor and Amok, you both are right.
The only thing is, that your firewall prevents the computer for being infected or activated.
Zeus!!, first download the Removal Tool and then update your norton immideatly. With your firewall and norton updated and activated you should be safe.Greets,

in case you ever get something severe and have to reinstall windows (I would have at that point), burn the installation files for anything you might need to prevent it (on mine I have 2 fire walls, a trojan remover, a virus remover, spybot, ad-aware, and a bunch of drivers)
just a suggestion
