    Hi Unicornia,

    1. Can you please let us know which operating system you are using (98/ME)?

    2. Do you have an installed and up-to-date antivirus installed?

    This will make it easier to help.

    Thanks!

    :D

    Could be any number of reasons, and frankly, it would be conjecture, which is "neither here, nor there", is it? From the looks of your infection, it's probably a new variant of Bagle which AVG didn't have a pattern file for. ;)

    At any rate, that's the only program in your arsenal that had any chance of snagging that badboy in real time before it hosed you.

    If you haven't already, I would first disable system restore, make sure AVG is up to date, and reboot your computer in Safe Mode. Then I would scan your pc with AVG and manually delete any files it cannot "heal".

    You can also download and run the worm cleaners from www.sarc.com, and/or www.avast.com, which may also do the trick for you. Make sure System Restore is disabled when you do this, or the infection will return.

    Post back here your findings, and good luck!

    ;)
