[sdavi122]

Hi, the above worm seem's to have got into my PC, I get a message to say that its been detected on my PC and I tried to scan it using symantec which I found on the net but after scaning its say worm.win32.netsky not found. I have done a scan (file attached) and a pic of my desktop.

Hope you can help.
Many thanks,
Steve Davis.

This apears to be a corporate machine - you SHOULD inform the IT department.
From our Forum Rules:

In General, we do not help in cleaning business or corporate computers. There may be restrictions and modifications installed on such machines that could be damaged or altered by the actions we take to remove Malware. There may also be legal issues regarding any loss of business data that we do not wish to deal with.

When a company machine is involved there is more to consider than just getting a machine clean.
To make sure it does not happen again, the IT department needs to make sure the machine is locked down so that additional programs cannot be installed without their knowledge.
The data on the machine is much more valuable than the machine itself.
If that data is compromised it could lead to data protection issues, even things that could be of a regulatory nature for disclosure to police etc.

In addition, this machine has full disk encryption capability. Since we cannot determine the owner/operator, by policy we will not be able to help with the machine.
