Checked on the microsoft site and it appears it could be a worm not picked up normal anti-virus....
So I was going to follow the stickies at the top of this page and try and clean it but i need to back up first so I do't lose anything on my laptop....Silly question i know but will it be safe to do so....I get wary with things like this as last time i had a virus my whole machine had to be taken away and cleaned and the information salvaged.
