It hit me last night. I downloaded the latest stuff from McAfee, ran a scan and found the infection. McAfee told me to delete KERNEL32.EXE which I did. Now where can I get an uninfected copy of that file, and what folder does it belong in?

You should be able to get it from your Windows Installation disk.
What version of Windows are you running?

KERNEL32.EXE is not a Windows file. There is no need to replace it.

The worm also drops a file called KDLL.DLL which should be deleted. Check any of the anti-virus software vendor sites for further information.
