I have one PC in my house that was infected by this threat while I connect a USB flash (Pen-drive) infected (I knew that the USB system was infected, and I'll remove it putting in a PC with anti-virus). In first, AVG Anti-virus remove two files infected: "autorun.inf" and "Slides.vbe". Once do it, I put in my PC (believing that the USB flash unit was safe now). But, when I put the Pen-Drive in my notebook, I receive a message (by Windows) saying that USB had corrupted, and I start to restore (but I not complete the process because was take too long). But, when I open the folder containing the USB flash unit files, Microsoft Security Essentials detected the virus: "Worm:JS/Proslikefan.gen" in my notebook and it take out. Resuming: I still belief in the possibility that the other PC (the first infected), still infected by the worm. I have executed tools like: "Microsoft Malware Removal Tool" in the first infected computer and the tool doesn't detect absolutely anything. I must find answers to this trouble and how I can finish it if is possible. PS.: The first infected PC have the follow OS: Windows XP - SP2.
