sounds like the nail.exe virus.
go to regedit, then search the directory
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows NT/CurrentVersion/Winlogon/Shell
Once you see the value for Shell on the right hand side, if it says "explorer.exe -nail.exe" , or something like that...then you've been hit. If so,I'll post up the fix I've used before.

Don't open Winlogon...just click on it. Then look on the right side, shell will be listed there.
It should read "Explorer.exe" over at the far right (Data Value) , but if there is anything different, then you have a problem.
