Did you install 1) HP patches required before installing Service Pack 2
(SP2); 2) XP SP2? If not and you connected to the Internet without a
firewall in place you may already have malware.

Get the HP patches and SP2. Get the tools/updates you will need to do at
least a simple malware/virus scan of your computer (see link below):

Take the computer off the Internet and any local area network.

When you are sure the computer is clean, apply the HP patches and then
install SP2. Make sure the SP2 firewall is on before connecting to the
Internet.

Hi Jonathan,

How can I successfully and safely remove this malware from a machine running
windows 2000 professional operating system without upgrading to xp and
protecting against future occurances of these programs.
