That message means you are infected with the Blaster worm - you are also
very behind on critical and security updates.

Cure - Disconnect the PC from the network/Internet. Download the Blaster
cleanup tool from Microsoft from another computer:

Run the removal tool. Then install both the following patches before
connecting to the Internet/network again:
