wmon16 follow-up

Thanks to everyone for their advice and help. The virus was pretty un-sophisticated as far as I can tell. It created C:\winnt\system32\wmon16.exe and added registry entries in Run and Run > OptionalComponents to start itself when the computer starts. I simply killed it with Sysinternal's pskill, deleted the registry entries, patched the computers and updated the A/V. It seems to be gone now, but I'll watching closely.

I submitted copies of the executable to various A/V vendors and many requestors on this list. If you asked for a copy and didn't get one, or would like to look at, please let me know. I had a lot going on and may have missed some people. Thanks again.
