Well that log looks clean.

What gives you the need to find out details of this worm.

The only web page I could find on it was to :-
http://response.network-box.com/index.php?id=134

But that only mentions a differnet version of that worm.

Which of your security programs is finding this.

If it is Webroot Spy Sweeper it might be a false positive, please provide the full path name of the suspected file.
it showed up when i rebooted this morning it was just a message on my desktop so i ran a Kaspersky onlne scan and it showed up in a Clean up package that i got from a friend.....so i removed the package and did a system restore,rescanned and i now showed up in restore volume file
Good for Kaspersky - that is one good AV :)

You should flush your restore points.

Turn them off, reboot and then turn them back on.

That will delete all the previous restore points, and set a fresh new one when you turn it back on.

Then re run Kaspersky and it should come up clean.

Bay-Wolf has some instructions on how to use system restore if you need any help.

Do post back if you have any problems.
I aan a new Karspesky online scan and here is the results

They are all inside system restore - if you turn that off, reboot, then turn it back on, that should flush those old restore points and provide a new clean one.
