I might mention that there is another virus called MTX that is very common as well.  This one also has the ability to block access to certain websites.

Interesting, I found this same midgets.scr file from my deleted mails box as well...
Although, I had deleted the message right as I got it and was looking into that for me unknown .scr file and decided that it was better to be deleted right off..
I didn't had deleted it from deleted folder like I usually do for such unknown files attachment messages.

This was sent from unknown mail address, probably by one guy who tries to piss me off for some reason by being 'compentitive' in other works.

Keep out of unknown files.. saves from alot trouble    

Looks like the guy sent this earlier too..  as enano.exe.
I read it is the same trojan.

Alas, I think www.microprose.com  is no more. Get rid of the "dash" (-) in www.bombs-away.net  to access that one. Use www.bombsaway.net  instead.

I just had a rough time with an MTX virus it blocked all access to the web. Ended up just formatting c: once I realized what was up. Of course after I formatted I went online and found a fix for it. It was masked in an email. Complete pain in the arse.  http://www.skidmore.edu/help/virus/mtx.html
go here for a fix you can do yourself.
