Problems with a virus that si shutting down your PC in
30.29.28 .... seconds and so on .

Give yous self som more time to work.

Make a simple batch file like this:

:loop
shutdown -a
sleep 10
goto loop


Run it , and it will abort shutdown continiously every 10 seconds.

Why not install and AV (assuming you don't have one) and run a full scan of your system. This way, it doesn't affect anyone else who comes in contact with it.

... been there, done that, made that mistake too, see where I am now.
 
avchaps suggestion is a very good one, however really you should run the microsoft patch to fix it as well, as the av software cannot stop the reboot if the virus has hit port 135... however I like you suggestion, because on a slow connection you cannot download the patch without the machine rebooting. so this shutdown -a can buy you some time...
