Have you tried downloading the latest updates. You could disable the virus (if it is a virus) by looking in your 'task manager' (CTRL+ALT+DEL once) and in the 'processes' tab for anything unusual. Then do a system scan.
Or and easer way, do a scan in SAFE mode. (Press F8 on startup untill you see an options screen then select 'Safe Mode')

try to download AVERT stinger and scan your system ... it covers about 40 of the most recent and common viruses ... then update your av software and install critical update patches.
Today's subliminal thought is: 'Calm down ... it's only ones and zeros.'
