Whew, not lookin good man.

What you got there is one of the most dangerous viruses, you need help quick, I would suggest bringing it to a computer doctor but that could cost alot of money, but it's worth preventing the potential damage this virus can cause. Good luck man.

Here's how to get rid of it

# Disable System Restore (Windows Me/XP).
# Update the virus definitions.
# Do one of the following:

* Windows 95/98/Me: Restart the computer in Safe mode.
* Windows NT/2000/XP: End the malicious process.

# Run a full system scan and delete all the files detected as VBS.Gaggle.E.
# Reverse the changes made to the registry.
# Remove the text from the Windows 95/98/Me Win.ini file.
# Remove the text from the Windows 95/98/Me System.ini file.

Thanks guys, I scanned it right after I got it and it says it was automatically deleted. I downloaded some videos my friends made with their cameras on their website. Do you think it could be some kind of errors or something like that because I don't think they would put viruses or shits like that.

^^ Thanks to you and Bigmack

could be a website automatically downloaded the virus to your computer.lots of websites have exploits on there that install shit without your consent and you dont even know it happened.

the stupid thing with this and most other virii is that its sole purpose is just to spread.. it doesnt do anything to fuck up you PC, it just spreads for the sake of spreading.
and at KAMIKAZI, i dont think there is such thing as a computer doctor. if there is, i feel sorry for that man's financial dependents..
