This is most likely the notorious Conficker Worm, a piece of malware of
such sophistication and flexibility that you're just ****ed.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conficker:

The origin of the name Conficker is thought to be a portmanteau of the
term "configure" with German word Ficker, which means "****er."

I recommend crushing your computer, liquidating your assets, contriving a
new identity, and moving overseas.
