Yes Scott, you have a virus for sure. This is a very bad one. It write a
temporary files on your HD until there is no more space for your computer to
continue to function. Check your Temp folders and delete all your files in
there. In your profile Temp folder in particular. This virus will come back
to you again and again until you remove it.
You need an anti-virus sw, even Microsoft upgrades could not defeat this virus,
this is a very sticky virus. I personally went in my registry to remove it
there and from my HD.
Good luck
