you don't remove the whole virus with windows based virus scanners, because some of the virus is running and normally won't be shutdown (the ppl who write viruses know this) so you have to use some thing to remove the viruses before the get to execute any code, so download an av that supports boot time scanning or download a live os and use it's interface to remove the virus, i recomend using an os with a virus scanner so you don't miss any files..

i remove viruses all the time for my stupid friends using the following method

download bartpe builder (www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/)
download the avast extention (http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_bart_cd.html)
make an iso
boot off your burnt iso
depending on when you made your iso update the virus defs. or not
scan and remove infected files
reboot into windows
