    HAve you gone to the McAfee or Symantec web sites and looked up this virus to see what they suggest doing to fix it?

    Note the date and time that the msblast.exe file (in windowssystem32)
    was modified, then do a search on your C: drive for any other files
    created on the same date and around the same time. You can use
    the "Advanced" Search in Windows Explorer for this.
