Update the definitions of your AntiVirus software, restart the system in
safe mode and use CA anti-Virus to run a full scan.
Restart in safe mode instructions:

Hi B,
If it's a viral warning, then I can only hope you aren't depending on MWAS
to do your virus checking. That's not what the program is intended for.

If not, check Panda:

or Trend:

I agree with the other advice--scan in safe mode.

fast.exe may well be a part of an XP powertoy. I haven't looked up the
reference on the specific virus that you cite though.
