It is a virus, W32.Blaster.Worm I think. I just got a call from my dad saying he had the same issue, and then two of my friends came online with the same story. It's a new worm, but Norton has a page about it here (http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.blaster.worm.html).

Good luck. :/
