did a studid thing yesterday and opened an email from
allegedly microsoft saying it was a security patch
download. After downloeading and installing I received
the worm swen.a virus and I can't get ri of the dam
thing. I have run PC Cillin 2003 which gave me the name
of the virus but it cannot quarantine it. I have
downloaded and installed the worm blaster patch and the
XPKB824146 patch re booted a number of times but no good.
PCCillin recommend I stop internet traffic but to do that
I can't sort this out. PLEASE HELP ANYONE
