Arg! This has happened from 4 installations:

about 5 minutes or after i connect to the net after booting up Win2k3, nothing can be dragged (click and drag), nothing can be copy pasted, and nothing can be deleted. This is not just the OS stuff, its in third party apps too.
Whats going on?
I kinda need copy and paste and dragging for my flash production very soon.

Press ctrl+alt+del and click on task manager. Are there any process running using lots of cpu time? I suspect that svvchost.exe will be.

If so go to symantec.com and download the Fixblast.exe and fixwelch.exe and copy it to each PC on the network.

Disconnet all the network cable and then run fixblast.exe on all the PCs once that has finished run fixwelch.exe.

did it find any instances of these viruses?
