    LOL

    I installed the exact same worm about a month ago. I tried every goddamn thing to get rid of it. It's not extremely dangerous, and I was able to root out everything but the main virus, which led me to buying a new hard drive, and losing a lot of stuff =(

    Try using Spybot - Search & Destroy. It gets rid of viruses also.

    I haven't had this specific problem, but I once had a similar problem when i installed the StumbleUpon Toolbar and tried to forward a page to a friend. It started sending the message multiple times but failed, which also caused problems with the antivirus and gave lots of error messages also.

    worms are getting a hell lot of attention these days than viruses. And if your yahoo messenger gets infected it's really hard to eradicate it. A friend of mine has been infected with the luvbin.com something worm and up until now we are still trying to remove it ;)

    I would try searching for the specific problem - might lead you to a more concise solution of poeple that had the same thing happen to them.

    You might consider try AVG Anti-Virus Free, AVG Anti-Spyware Free and AVG Anti-Rootkit Free. http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1. Anyway, the best option will be format your pc.
