Worm_MSblast.A,C&E!

Well the computer at home has been playing up a little recently and has been so bad I've not been able to remote access it to sort out the problem... after some decidedly awkward over-the-phone diagnosis sessions is was decided we may have a virus - we did - it turned out to be the dreaded MSblast hidden as a 'C' variant...

Well with immediate steps taken to remove the rogue processes all was still not well. Much more calling (and some patching) later and it was discovered that infact it had both the 'C' and 'E' variants, as well as the common 'A' variant, the new advanced Nachi worm and a random trojan! Well no wonder it wouldn't let me connect... After some skillfull process interuptions, much deletion and registry editing, today I managed to kill off the viruses and all is well... let's hope that doesn't happen ever again...
