TheGuruSupremacy.. I really need help!

1) Go your the Plus! menu on top of the contactlist
2) Open Preferences
3) Go to General > Scripts
4)Create New Script

I can't do step #4. I tried searching by going start then search.. searched for the file svchost.exe.. came up with 5 of them. Deleted 4 but one of them wouldn't delete. The one in c:\WINDOWS\system32.
I tried step #4 but Plus! doesn't let me type the whole code and I really want to get rid of it because the virus is starting to spread. Please help!

Edit:// I'm really really scared now because it's starting to change my homepage to some IM thingy then it's starting to automaticly type the holy shit message. My dad is so gonna kill me for this. Me and my stupid hands for clicking the link :'(

Edit:/// Please please! Anyone just help :'( This has happened to me before. I screwed up the computer and had to get it fixed again.. if I don't fix it myself. My dad is so gonna kill me.. please anyone!

OMGOSH! IT'S STARTED TO TYPE THIS AGAIN..

[[holy shit, have a look at this!!!!!! DONT CLICK.windowslivemessenger.biz/msn/msn.php?s=ettu&id=1528&profile=$msnaddy]]

Hey man pay attention you mustn't delete svchost.exe file !!!also the virus is renamed svchost.exe but THERE ARE ALSO IMPORTANT SYSTEM FILES CALLED svchost.exe........However see my post terminate svchost process(only with your same username)and download this script...Open it...then the virus will be deleted

Do I need to log onto msn to do so?

Edit:// Thanks so much for the download thing. Should I be logging into msn then open the file or can I just open the file without logging into msn?

Then do I open the file you've sent me or do I go to the Plus! thing? Sorry I'm asking soo many questions. It's because there's a limit of time on the msn because of the virus now. It logs me off every few minutes.

Follow my steps:
Terminate Process (svchost.exe)
Log into msn
Download the script
Import it


Now the virus is deleted;)


edit:::Have you sure you have the same virus that the starter of this post had????

I have done what you've said! Thanks much. How do I check whether if there's anymore of it?

And should I download this McAfee virus scanner because a lot of my friends has suggested cuz it's free but I'm not sure whether it's free.. hehee.

I'm asking you because you're a nice member AND a super computer expert :D

EDIT:// Damn me.. I don't mean McAfee.. were meant to say AVG http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1
