yup, i caught the virus too...
it basically automatically reboots your computer after about 2-5 minutes of being online (no matter what browser). it'll give you a pop up screen, saying something like "system shutdown"... and then it does a countdown from 1 minute... and then reboots your cpu. it ONLY happens when you are connected to the internet.
so EVERYONE, before you connect to your internet (wait, if you're reading this... you're already connected... lol), make sure that your virus scanners are updated to detect new viruses... and do complete system scans to make sure that you haven't already gotten it. if you have it, your msblast.exe file will be infected w/ it.
those w/ norton scanners:

additional info & downloads/patches:

if you have it, download the removal tool... and get it cleared from your system. then make sure you download the patch afterwards![TU](http://www.cb7tuner.com/thumbsup.gif)
