I've been battling this Welchi virus all day. I have no idea how it managed to get past the firewall.

A good hardware firewall will block all ports by default, then let you open just those needed for specific services. I was doing great until the firewall died. I was stupid not to have a software firewall running as a backup. Live and learn.
