Greg ...
IF you were online for even a few minutes without adequate protection, then this
is likely the problem: http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/blast.asp and http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.blaster.b.worm.html
Blaster Removal Tool at http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.blaster.worm.removal.tool.html
When you get this fixed, you may want to consider (re-)evaluating the tools you use
for safe surfing here: http://annoyances.org/exec/forum/winxp/r1073840103
Hope this is helpful to you.
