Get a firewall and a virus checker.

 

Its either the MSBlaster, Sasser or Korgo virus.

 

I will not connect to the internet on a new installation until I have a firewall and virus checker installed

I fixed mine by running Adaware from http://www.download.com

 

The fun part was trying to sort it in the 60 odd seconds you get before it re-boots!!

 

So you have to let Adaware find a few things in under the minute, stop it, then delete the shite quickly. And then repeat again until its clean. All good fun!

you can type shutdown -a into a dos prompt to stop your computer shutting down automatically.

DONT install WINXP SP2 if u run loads of thrid party software, fVckin thing is a nightmare! You have to end up reinstalling everything and your still not guaranteed for it to work! Even Microsoft can believe how sh1t it is!

 

 

 

Get Norton Internet Security instead, its the tits! ;)

NIS is evil, evil software IMHO.
