Download http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html and install. Tell it to do a bootscan from the moment your computer restarts. Far better than an online scan if you do this, followed by another full scan once the computer is rebooted and running.
A bootscan will catch all of the boot ram viruses and things before they have a chance to load. |
