Every once in a while I get stuck in a "Warning....registry virus error..."

It stops everything on SM.
SM does not respond.   Can't get out.

Says I have to call some 800 number to get my computer back - big long worded 
thing that
repeats itself.

I have been able to get out only by repeated ALT-F4 and restarting Windows (XP) 
and then
after a while of that, by clicking on the icon below and clicking "Close".  I 
can't remember
exactly what I do, but eventually it goes away.

Is this the "Extortion Virus" thing out of Russia I have heard about ?

What is the best way to get out of it ?
BTW - I can't find any FREE virus checkers that work in XP.  My computer is too 
old to run
the new Windows.
