yeah get urself some anti virus and sort the mofo out.
formatting is for losers.
format over a gay virus, which could easily be eliminated by having some good AV software on puter.
my trend micro does the job...got it free on my mobo CD
When the message appears, click "Start" and then "Run", and then type "shutdown -a" in teh field and press enter. That should override the shutdown. And yes, get some anti-virus software.
it was better for me to formatt, my puter was so packed, that the RAM barely had any space to run. just got the stuff i used, and cleaned my comp up.
also, i got astonshell for my desktop. it makes your desktop look way better than the windows, and also uses less RAM than windows desktop. its a good thing.

I installed XP on a new hard drive a couple of months ago, and literally as soon as I connected to the internet I got that countdown too. Fortunately I was able to download a removal utility - MSBlasterRemover.exe - between automatic reboots and that got rid of the little shit.
Make sure you are prepared for this worm when you next re-install Windows!

that is how it happened to me.
anyways norton didn't pick up this other one that the Trend mico website did. my CPU is still being killed at %100, by this bastard. It is called Worm_Agobot.fx
the website tells you how to get rid of but it doesn't work me. that shite keeps resurecting itself. I am serious. I did my research on it and it is a pretty impressive virus. got me wooped. just going to reformat this weekend when i have time. just a heads up. get the patch against if you don't have it yet.
