it might not be a worm. use this program to optimize ur computer. http://www.tune-up.com/ it is a very good program. make sure to disable any startup items and services u dont need. also go to this site and scan ur computer for any infection. (its good to have a second anti virus, spyware, etc opinion.)

ewido.com has a very highly rated software. you can download a 15 day free trial. it may not be a worm it may be spam. if it is a worm then antivirus.com has a internet based cleaning solution. This website is Trendmicro. They are very highly rated as well. Never depend on one virus software to clean your system. Have a good antivirus software running on your computer but everyonce in a while run another big name software from the internet and check your system

You are going to crash so as fast as you can, back up your files. Sorry, I don't know of a way to stop it.
