Question...
I just reformatted someone's system due to this little nasty, and the second I hooked it up to his router it instantly brought up that reboot screen -- Is he getting it from his router or something?

Nope, I never hooked it up to my network for that very reason...
But I can't see how the virus would be stored on his router though...
Should I flash the router and reformat yet again?

No you have to install that patch before getting on an lan or internet. Sasser can infect your computer the instant you connect it to the net. It needs nothing more than a network connection to spread, wich is why its such a pain in the ass.

I just used my firewall to deny any type of connection into my computer untill I installed the patch, worked.
