| Sounds like KLEZ variant to me. It disables your virus scanner so it doesnt pick it up. Its a mass mailer that disables virus scanners. Do a online scan of the file and your system then you'll have to use the remover tool found HERE |

Do you play Spider Solitaire or any game that ever had spider in the title? Where did you find the file at?

damn 15 minutes off work for nothing. i did a search and found the wrghtt tool to delete it. i ran it but couldn't find the virus. i did a new search on the net and found out that the virus called that way is actually spider.sav.scr
the file called spider.sav is just a game off spider solitair that has been saved but ended up in the wrong directory.
wOOt am i glad that it wasn't a virus!!!!!!
thx for the help though.

www.antivirus.com is a free online scan since norton will not pick up Klez. If in doubt don't open anything unless your of its origin.
