Use Malwarebytes to get rid of the virus.
Follow the directions in this link http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/malware-… to do the removal.
The best thing would be if you could get the malwarebytes program installation executable on a cd or a flash drive from another computer and copy it onto the infected system. Once copied, run it to install Malwarebytes and run it. It might be hard or impossible to download the malwarebytes program on the infected computer.
The best protection is an Internet security suite. I personally prefer Kaspersky Internet Security 2009. A single internet suite is better than a bunch of free anti virus programs and spyware detection programs that very often clash with each other.
