Can you help me what virus is causing this.

I run a full system scan and I found TSadbot virus and
myDoom.

I disinfected th XP Machine but somehow theres still more
and I doubt it as Mydoom causing it.

Situation:

When ever we open network Neighborhood a pop up window
open telling that Windows Explorer Encountered a problem.
this windows has no minimize or close control but with one
close botton, I think this is only to fool user to click
on cllose button to install something.

Can you help me what virus is this and how to remove.

whatever application or windows program we are opening the
same dialog box appear and I cant find it with
Ctrl+Alt+del but I found a strange exe called dwwin.exe
everytime the dialog box appear.

Thanks
