Whenever I log onto the internet this box pops up on the
screen and says my computer must be sht down. It then
starts a 60 second countdown and restarts my computer at
the end of the countdown. I believe it has something to do
with the last blasterworm thing that went around. I have
tried to get online to patch it or fix the problem but I
can't due to the fact that my computer shuts down when I
do. Does anyone have any suggestions?
 
Go to http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_qr.htm#rpc and download the removal
tool.
Run the tool to remove the worm,then follow the onscreen prompts to download
the patch.
Make sure you download the 32bit patch if you are running XP.

There are more variants out now.
The exes for 2 of the variants are teekids.exe and penis32.exe
Kelly's script kills all known variants.
As more variants are found Kelly and Doug are adding removal instructions to
the script to kill them as well.

If you are having trouble staying up to get the patch and removal tool:
When the shutdown prompt appears,go to start/run and type
shutdown -a to abort the shutdown process to allow you to stay up and
online.
