security firewall message

I have received a windows security warning about a possible trojan worman. It
asks me to enable protection and brings up a new web tab asking me to
download software. I am afraid that this is the trojan trying to access my
PC. My Anti virus program is not picking this up as a threat. Can anyone
tell me how to get rid of it.

Do a Google Groups search for the full, correct name of the software you are
being asked to download. You'll most likely get many hits and links to
forums that specialize in combating malware. If the articles you find in the
search don't help, post your question in one of those forums.
