Apparently, your PC has suffered a major security breech and is now
infected with malware (i.e. "a viral worm") because:

1. The latest Windows XP Critical Updates have apparently not been installed......
2. The PC's firewall apparently has not been properly enabled.....
3. Out-of-date or no AntiVirus program has been installed......

If you have Sasser, follow these directions to remove it from your computer:

Special note if you use AOL:

America Online installs its own connection settings that override
the ones that come with Windows XP. America Online's
connection settings don't include a way to turn on Windows XP's
built-in firewall.

Visit the following web site for instructions on downloading
a FREE firewall program for your computer.
