Default OT: Damned Viruses everywhere!

Hey guys as you may have guessed by my title I got a freakin virus!

That's right anyway my stupid AVG told me I should delete the files so I did NOW windows is acting screwy (note it wouldn't HEAL the files it would only let me delete the files).

Anyway now it won't let me bring up my task manager, some wierd crap I deleted a long time ago is back on my desktop (I deleted it again) and other bad stuff is happening.

Now I tried system restore to a point before the virus JACKS SQUAT it didn't work at ALL. So I had no choice BUT to delete the infected portions of my computer before the virus spread and I'm not even sure I got the damn thing this time.


I don't want to have to reformat my whole bloody hard drive and I read that it's as easy to fix as popping in my WindowsXP disk during boot, selecting a partition and hitting "R" and that said it should fix the problems.

Questions:

A) If I can't get rid of the damn virus what do I do?

B) Is this bit about the disk and R true?

C) Any other tips or advice Please provide it ASAP
