@Kristi,
I do not think its conficker. Conficker doesn’t block you from logging in to your PC, it runs in the background and acts like a zombie. This must be some ‘Virus’, so try some other antivirus like Avira/Nod32

I think I may have the conflicker worm on my laptop. I ran Avast in the boot phase, and now when I log in it immediately logs me out. What do I need to do???

This virus blocks Microsofts site so how do you propose everyone go and get the fix if they are infected? Maybe some people should start mirroring the fix to get around this.
