ouch that sucks.
do you have another pc? could try what i did when i got a virus in all 3 of my computers. i took the hard drive out of my gaming computer (where it was worse and coulden't even access the internet) and stuck it in the island server as a second hard drive since the island server was barly effected by the virus. i then used the software on the island server to virus scan the hard drive and later stuck it back in its computer.

i reccomend this because i hate how norton and mcafee squander all your system resources, but i also hate how most freeware scanners detect things improperly.

avg solves both problems. highly reliable and a nice low footprint.

i used to have a very good Antivirus.. i dont remember its name.. it wasnt freeware but you cant buy it in stores... Its a program that some Computer Techs gave me to check out.. it also had Stealth mode firewall and some other nice progs with it... Ill ask my friends see if they remember and ill post the site here for you guys.
