This virus or worm, or whatever it is has infeced 3 computers I have been working on. AVG and Malwarebytes have not been able to remove it. The system I am working on right now is FULLY updated (XP).

It will pop up a window saying that the sysem is shutting down...blah blah, and I can run "shutdown -a" to stop the shutdown, but it will randomly pop-up and do that.

I have checked for MSBLAST or any variants and have not found any.

I have searched google for information on this new strain, but have found nothing helpful.

I have just updated AVG and Malwarebytes and am running scans again.

Any ideas?
