i have two network computers that have the same kind of virus. one of them is
running xp and the other one win 2000. The virus is kind of Blaster virus
which gives you 60 sec to shut down. I checked both machines with a antivirus
(updated) and found noting, i also installed a blaster fix, but still no
luck...
what should i do to fix this problem
I run zone alarm security suite with antivirus.

or the desktop
(e.g., "C:\Documents and Settings\lipman\Desktop\New Folder")

Download sysclean.com and place it in that directory.
Dowload the signature files (pattern files) by obtaining the ZIP file.
For example; lpt186.zip

Extract the contents of the ZIP file and place the contents in the same directory as
