This will usually prevent you from ending the process and delete it.
First try the way above and if this doesn't work then use this method.
You must know the name of the virus and where it is. to carry on for the next to steps(Smilie)
Go to Start -> My Computer -> (The drive that it is located) -> Find where the virus is located -> Highlight it and click "Del" on your keyboard.
And that should work.
A Very High Risk Virus
These are usually very secure so there harder to get rid of.
And again, before you try this step try the ones above(Smilie)
Right get into safe mode (Restart -> Click F8 -> Click "Safe Mode" -> Login )
If the taskbar does not load up (Like for me :/) then just Ctrl + Alt + Del then go to new task type in "cmd".
If by now you have forgotten the name but you know what directory it is then first type in "dir this_is_where_the_dir_name_goes" let it list everything and then look for it. Once you have found it and you know for sure* that its that type in: "del (**)C:\THEN\GO\THROUGH\TO\WHERE\IT\IS" Then click enter. And you're done.

Neither of those will work if the viruses process is runing at the time..........
