IRC Undernet G-lined Virus

Recently I was having problems connecting on IRC to Undernet, it as reporting that I had a virus and I kept getting g-lined and instantly disconnected.

Did a sweep with Hijackthis, nothing out of the ordinary.
Did a sweep with Spybot S&D, nothing found.
Did a sweep with Ad-aware, also nothing found.

So I assumed it was a false positive, decided I couldn't use Undernet any more & switche d to IRCHiughway.

Then last night before going to bed I decided to run my antivirus software over my main hard drive.

THAT found something. 5 infected files were found.
3 hidden in Documents & Settings/Network Services (A folder that doesn't even exist!)
2 hidden in numbered subfolders inside my Sun/Java area.

I told Avast to put them into the virus chest, then I deleted them from the chest.

Tried to reconnect to Undernet, no more error messages about viri.
Clearly I WAS infected then.

I've written up this post so if anyone else has the same issue, they can look in the same places and find the virus more easily.

The silicon chip inside their head
Gets switched to overload.
And nobody's gonna get to plough today,
Their going to make them go offline.

And daddy doesn't understand it,
He always said it was good as gold.
And he can see no seasons
'Cause there are no seasons
What season do you need to be shown?

Tell me why?
I don't like Farmville.
Tell me why?
I don't like Farmville.
Tell me why?
I don't like Farmville.
I want to shoot
The Zynga staff.

The 'net machine is kept so clean
As it skypes to a waiting world.
And mother feels so shocked,
Father's world is rocked,
And their thoughts turn to
Their own little farm.

Sweet 16 ain't that peachy keen,
No, it ain't so neat to admit defeat.
They can see no seasons
'Cause there are no seasons
What seasons do you need.. ooh-ooh-ooh

Tell me why?
I don't like Farmville.
Tell me why?
I don't like Farmville.
Tell me why?
I don't like Farmville.
I want to shoot
The Zynga staff, staff, staff... shoot all the staff

All the farming's stopped in the farmground now
She wants to farm with her toys a while.
And harvests early and soon we'll be learning
And the lesson today is how to die.
And then the bullhorn crackles,
And the captain tackles,
With the problems and the hows and whys.
And he can see no seasons
'Cause there are no seasons
What season do you need to cry, cry, ooh...ooh?
