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. ------------------ |

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. |

Thanks for the help guys! We got the email from Ed today and dumped it without opening. You probably saved a lot of us a lot of trouble! ------------------ |

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" ------------------ |
