Here's my 2 cents worth solution to fixing your problem:
- Delete Windowz completely after backing up important docs, etc. 
(hopefully your documents are not infected) If you don't have anti-virus 
software or the latest updated, you can check if your documents are 
clean by emailing them to yourself at some public mail server that scans 
for infected attachements (like yahoo).
- Then reinstall Windowz from the install disks.
- If possible don't install and/or configure networking support 
(networking is usually needed is you want Windows to connect to 
something like a Symbian phone).
- Next install your fav Linux distro (hopefully its slackware) on 
another partition.
- Use Linux to connect to public and private (these aren't any safer 
when it comes to viruses/worms) networks.

You will find:
- It is far easier to maintain a Linux distro with the latest patches.
- If you occasionally need to use Win you will find it may be faster, 
since you don't have a lot of crap installed like anti-virus programs 
and firewalls. As long as Windows is not exposed to any networks and 
your emailed docs are scanned by someone elses anti-virus software you 
may not need to bother installing the latest patches.

If you don't want to install Linux on the harddrive use a CD distro like 
SLAX or Knoppix.
