To add to what Mike suggested you probably have blaster or sasser [first
guess] worm. Make sure you follow his suggestions and also install an
antivirus program that will monitor your computer, keep itself updated, and
scan ALL your emails also. The first link below is to a free Singer utility
from Mcafee that is a small download that may be able to detect and remove
the worm. The second link is to a company that offers a quality fee
antivirus program for home users. --- Steve
