1.  You can use an emergency disk to scan/remove the virus.  If you have one or know someone who can make one.

2.  You could use housecall to scan your computer from their website.  It is slow but it may remove it.

3.  If your virus software has a CD.  It may have a scan feature but the virus definitions will most likely be old.  But it may be worth a shot.

In your situation, there are a few options you can choose.



1) Reformat your hard disk and reinstall your Windows, which you can leave it as

a last resort.



2) Take out your hard disk and install as a secondary drive in another PC that

have a good anti-virus program. Boot up on that PC and scan your infected hard

disk.



3) You can install Clamwin anti-virus.

There is a portable version of ClamWin anti-virus where it can be install into

an USB pen drive as small as 64 MB.

When the USB pen drive is ready to be use.



Start the infected PC in safe mode by pressing F8 during start up.

infected PC.



After removing the virus, install c**p cleaner (ccleaner) to get rid of the

viruses left over setting in the windows registry.
