Format your hard drive. It means starting clean with a new installation. You'll lose all of your files on your hard drive.

its usually best taht way, cuz then u kno that its all clean and some of the stuff that u might backup wont be infected, i mean if u have to back stuff up try and put it ina winzip format and put it on a CD so u can scan it when u need it back

TBH, get a paid-for (or a very good free) antivirus. Without one, you're very vunerable.
