Greetings --
The type of behavior you describe is typical behavior of more than
one virus/worm, the three below being the most common:
W32.Klez
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.klez.e@mm.html
W32.Yaha
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.yaha.c@mm.html
W32.Spybot.Worm
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.spybot.worm.html
Because many of the newer viruses and worms, such as the
Spybot mentioned above, can disable antivirus applications whose
definitions aren't kept up-to-date, try using one or more of the free
on-line scanners to double-check your system.

McAfee Security - FreeScan
