I have a little worm but it was not me who gave it too you.

I sent it to my sister in law, so she phoned to tell me last night.

Still trying to get rid of the thing, i'm not to clever with these things.

Norton antivirus should be able to clean it up with the latest signature traces.

Tryed cleaning them from Sideways PC last night but forgot to remove the files at the root directory.

I have a batch file that cleans the registry on your PC of the virus, if anyone needs it? Apparently if the virus has not been cleaned off your P.C. by a certain date it wipes the hard drive. So if anyone needs some help I can send them various files.
