This is a nasty little bugger and has infected my existing machine and got through my AntiVirus software.

The words "balls", "hanging by" and "if I catch the (insert your choice of swear word) who created the virus" kept coming to my mind.

I also bought a new machine on Tuesday, switched it on yesterday and the first item I installed was my modem and bang, the virus appeared.

I hadn't even loaded my ISP software and the bast##d was on both machines.

I am not very computer literate and it has taken me the best part of 18 hours to sort the problem out and even now my old machine is unstable although this is probably more because I don't know what I'm doing.

Anyway, start virus free.
