This affects Win2k too.  I had to deal with it earlier today.  It was my 
experience that after the machine rebooted a few times it would stay up and 
allow you to remove the offending files and processes, and apply the 
appropriate patches.

What I like about this worm is that it's extremely easy to identify hosts 
on your network that are infected. Just run an nmap scan of your network 
and look for hosts with TCP port 5554 open.
