Virus/Malware attack!!

Cripes that was awful! I don't know how this nasty virus/malware got in, I think it has been reported before, disguised as some anti virus software that was scanning my system, no matter how many times I closed it kept opening, tried ending task in task manager but kept loading, the file was either ryo.exe or yro.exe, I was too busy trying to deny access to the web, delete it, end task, but this thing was coming up multiple times, all I could do was quickly save my outlook express and hit the kill switch!!
Thankfully I had only just ghosted my system a few days ago due to index errors (having a good run!!), I noticed during this episode that a few blue shields with yellow and red colors were showing on the task bar!! Nasty thing! needless to say I am running Avira and Ad-Aware at the moment.
Who else has had this?
