dont be alarmed so quickly.. if the scanners dont find anything , no need to rush..

try online scanners.. even if there is a virus, by deleting every suspicious file you would be damaging your file structure and more harmful than a virus  ;D :y

Try to backup any documents you need and format the disc.
If you want it is maybe good to first create the  new partition if you don't have it ( use partition magic pro) and then format the partition with the suspected virus.
Before all this run chkdsk and see if there are any bad sectors on the disc.

had to go back to factory settings. couldnt load any discs, no usb ports would work and everything kept freezing. so whatever i picked up is the worse ive had in the last 12 years of having a pc. luckily i put everything on disc 2 weeks ago except for about 100 albums which i have lost.  :( :)
