There's a virus out there that mutates and is causing havoc.

Make sure your computer is protected. (MAC nerds need not worry)

Here is a link to get the security patch.

If everyone would set their PC for automatic updates this would never happen.

I saw that on the BBC a few days back, nasty stuff.

Blimey, that patch was actually released back in October 2008! Just goes to show how infrequently some people update their security.

Sounds like time to backup your files and run the system restore disk. There's probably no other way to fix it.
