Hi bembergirl
You might have the VBS.Gaggle.D worm
When VBS.Gaggle.D runs, it does the following:
Creates some of the following copies of itself in the %System% folder:
File.vbs
Gedzac.vbs
Israfel.vbs
pubprn.vbs
Kernel32.win
Mouse_configurator.win
Winmgd.win
Backup.vbs
Template.htm (A .html file containing the worm.)
Filezip.zip (A .zip archive of the worm.)
You can read about it here http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/vbs.gaggle.d.html
There are removal instructions toward the bottom of the page.
