Was wondering if anyone can hep with a problem I am having regarding the removal of this virus.
The problem has been happening for about 4 weeks now and I am slowly beginning to go mad. Basically we were hit by the virus a while ago and it has infected about 20 PC's which we have managed to keep contained so that the virus does not spread. I have tried all removal tools supplied by Anti-virus companies, have checked all registry keys and performed numerous scans, which tell me that the problem file has been removed, however later on i am getting emails from the infected omputers telling me that the infected files have been found again.
Does anyone know of how to remove the problem once and for all, or am I missing something?

Thanks

The worm drops this file:

\windows\system32\About_Blackworm.C.txt

When executed, the worm will run an empty copy of Windows Media Player.

Additionally the worm can perform a Denial of Service (DoS) attack against this website: webstats.web.rcn.net

Try http://www.eWido.net/en because they
have over 250,000 different viruses and
trojans covered and they solved a problem that the Big Five were clueless about... the pesky Win32/Beovens trojan. The Big Five would be McAfee, Zone Alarm, Norton Symantec, CA eTrust, AdAware, etc., etc. Good luck. It is FREE and 100% functional for 14 days.
