How do you remove vbs freelink virus?

Detailed Explanation

VBS/Freelink is an e-mail worm written with the VBScript language. Programs written with VBScript operate only under Windows 98 and Windows 2000 (unless Windows Scripting Host has been installed separately)
The VBS.Freelink virus distributes itself as an e-mail attachment. The e-mail attachment must be opened for the virus to propagate.
Go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\services and rename MSXMIDI.EXE and WMPLAYER.EXE to any extention of your choice....I use oxo.....re boot.....if you check the file sizes of these files they are both 28k. Delete them. You should then remove any reference to either file in the windows registry or use a program such as Reg Scrub XP to do it for you...You should now no longer have any further problems with FREELINK
