Hi,

Run winver from the start/search line - does it state that SP1 is installed?
It's quite a lengthy procedure, and what you may be seeing in the history
are updates that are or have become part of SP1. Just because some updates
that are part of it are installed does not mean that SP1 itself is
installed.

I highly doubt that someone is disguising a virus as SP1 and pushing it out
to your machine. While not impossible, it'd be a lot of work to achieve that
level of fakery.
