    Hi all.

    I think I may have a Virut virus on my work computer. Near as I can tell I got it while browsing Flickr? I got some weird pop ups after I visited there, and now seem to be having issues. When I try to run combofix it alerted me to the fact that I may have a Virut. Not only that, my home computers seem to be having issues now. Can those thing's travel through routers? I'm pretty worried now. Seems like they are nasty critters and I may have to reinstall? If anyone could help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it. Here is a combofix log if that helps:

    ComboFix 11-06-11.01 - Administrator 06/11/2011 19:40:05.1.2 - x86 MINIMAL
    Microsoft Windows XP Professional 5.1.2600.3.1252.1.1033.18.3037.2756 [GMT -4:00]
    Running from: f:\anti-virus programs\ComboFix.exe

    Welcome to MajorGeeks

    Virut is network aware, it will try to infect other PC over the network, eg by infecting executables in shared folders.

    Please run the below and attach the resulting log file that will help determine if you are indeed infected with Virut.
