I am still trying to get rid of the recent virus fiasco with Sasser and wuamgard.exe. When I first got hit I immediately ran Norton AntiVirus and got the virus name and was able to get rid of all but one...this wuamgard.exe and will be doing that shortly (don't worry, I'm at my work computer). Anyway, now my AntiVirus won't work. Won't load or scan or anything from a regular boot. When I went into msconfig is when I found the virus signature then I like to have never have gotten out of the limited boot. Is this a result of this virus or is something else wrong I dont' know about?

It is likely you have some spyware that should be removed.
"wuamgard.exe" is not a Windows XP file....it is a likely "spyware"
file.
