What firewall do you have installed? Have you installed all the Microsoft "critical updates"? Have you installed your antivirus software and got all the updates for it, and then done a full system virus scan. I think you have picked up the Welchia Worm. Synantec has a removal tool for it at their website http://www.symantec.com/ download area, if your antivirus cannot detect/clean/repair the file.
