Computer infected with a virus

I haven't been keeping up to date with my blogs because I'm trying to fight of a computer virus. I think I might have isolated it but I won't know for sure until I completely remove it and reboot my computer. I'm scanning it right now, and I hope this will solve the problem.
Apparently I didn't have one of the patches installed on my computer and I think that's what made it vulnerable to the virus.
I'll keep you updated as I try to fix it.
