For those of you that are not running an antivirus program.

if you run your windows update you want to install the KB835732 patch which will be under the critical updates section. If you want to check to see if you already have the patch go to add remove programs on the control panel an look for windows hotfix KB835732. To remove the virus you can download stinger from the McAfee website. Click to read about the Sasser virus and it will say to download the stinger tool.

All fixed :D
