Sassy you were very helpful. For anyone else who wants the fastest and easiest way to kill this worm go to http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/FixSirc.com
Pick save to your desktop, dbl click and a window comes up with a guy in a gas mask, and to the right it says "This program will remove W32.Sircam.Wom@mm infection from your machine." Press start to begin removal.
I tried the anti-virus program Cliff was talking about first(InoculateIt) but it was a no go. This is the cure! No more stupid white box, no more fricken worm. Hope this helps everybody else.P.S- please don't e-mail me ever again Ed!
(I know, I know, it wasn't your fault

I didn't email you and if you got the virus, you are probably sending the virus. Apparently you did the same thing I did, by opening an email. I got an email from myself with the virus. Thanks for the info, I will try that one also.

Thanks for the tip. I had already used my anti virus software to remove the three infected files but it did not restore the registry keys, so I could not access any of my programs. This tool restored two registry keys and all works well now.

I'm just getting a "Action cancelled" on screen?

Problem with site, or just busy?

Sassy Moma does not know how to email me pics of a chrome grill but has the knowledge to acquire a quick fix for the worm virus. I'd go to symantec's web page and check it out first!

My first attempt at removing the virus was unsuccessful and I was instructed to reboot my computer (for the 3rd time) and run the program again. It worked this time.
I am still receiving emails containing the virus, about 5 or 6 a day. Everyone needs to run that program listed above or it will continue to get sent between members. I thought I had gotten rid of it yesterday but I apparently was still sending it, also.

Just got back up again. I had to reload the puter and lose a years worth of stuff saved. Got Norton looking over my shoulder now-like the song says "we wont get fooled again"
