Virus Detected: BDS/SdBot.AA

I have been having trouble with my Internet Connection failing under windows for a few weeks now, and I just recently spent more time in linux and realised that Linux is not susceptable to it, so it must not be an ISP snafu. I immediately ran AntiVir 6 and found a virus called " BDS/SdBot.AA" in c:/windows/system32/system32.exe. I quarantined it. Anyone know what it is?

that AV program was just bad. I got 25 more virus warnings, mostly from installation programs, a good many of which i knew to be legitimate, NOONE USE ANTI-VIR 6 from www.free-av.com, it flags every program on your machine almost, it sucks.
