Hi Ian,
You are in big trouble. The Trojan you have infects everything on a
network, and generates emails to further spread. You are like
someone with an STD. If you are not responsible, everyone you come
in contact will be infected, and in turn without the proper
protection, well there is the one called AIDS. Go to this sight and
run an online scan. Print it out and do everything item in the
procedure just exactly like they instructs you to do. You get the
procedure by going to Google and searching for the virus and names
of files given you after the scan. When you find an instruction
site, print it. I generally use Symantec. The online scan is
Symantec; look at the Virus definitions and look down the list,
choose the virus scan on the popup page.

If you do not have protection go here
www.spychecker.com and look at
AVG antivirus, Zone Alarm firewall, Ad-aware, and SpyBot-S&D . I am
serious, If you don't, you will need a Clean Install with a very
short time.

My virus software (Symantec) is picking up an infected
file (svcpack.exe) but is unable to clean or quarrantine
it. I cannot delete the file either. My PC does not seem
to be affected, yet, but I'm not sure where to go from
here. I am admittedly ignorant when it comes to viruses
and internet attacks so any help would be appreciated.
