Playing W32blaster.worm by Defender

A few weeks back my son's computer received the w32/blaster worm from a program called defender.exe. It's some kind of worm that won't let you open any executables, but of course some asshole anti virus program starts up, (the ones who put it there) offering to fix the problem by sending them eighty bucks along with all your credit card information. Yeah right!!!
Not knowing how to fix it and ninety bucks later, the local computer store fixed it. Well, didn't my computer get the same damn worm. I knew there was a program running that was causing the problem, so I gave the comp the ol' three finger salute, control, alt, delete for task manager. It appears for half a second and disappears. So I just held down those three buttons until it used up most of the ram. I was hoping the program causing this would slow down and I could quickly read the executables, identify the program and then hit end process.
The name of the program causing the problem was defender.exe. To stop it takes patience, timing and luck. I pretended it was a weird computer game so that I wouldn't become angry. If you bog down the computer just enough, I held control alt delete for about three minutes to get the screen to stay up for a whole second. In that second you must locate defender.exe, click on it. The task manager window will disappear for a fraction of a second and reappear for about half a second, you then hit end process in the window and enter on the key board, in that order and lightning fast.
At that point I turned on my Kapersky security system it asked me to update my program. I did this and as directed rebooted my computer. Fuck, Fuck, Fuck! Kapersky failed to start and defender kicked back in. Back to the finger salute, this time it was harder to do, it was like the program was learning how to fight me. It took me about fifteen minutes to stop it. I started Kapersky again it ran another program to finish the update. Then it automatically rebooted my comp. Holy Fuck!!! I stared at my computer screen and hoped that fucking defender shield didn't pop up.
Hooray!!! Kapersky started right up, prompted me to quarantine some shit and then delete it.
It took me a few hours to win the game, but I don't think I want to ever play it again.
