can you scan several times in a row? I know that would take forever, but it might work. Otherwise, take it to a professional.

Back up all the data you need onto a disc, then reformat it?

Use f-secure or gdata to do an offline scan without starting windows. This allows to get rid of it. Important is that you use or a boot cd out of the sales box or if you download you do it on a clean pc and you use it there to build a clean boot cd. You cannot produce clean boot CDs on an infected system.
PS: northong gives you the name of the virus I guess. Before deciding for one or the other look at the site of the producer whether they list it as known and repairable and which strategy they do suggest.

And you'll tranfer the virus to your next setup.

If its so badly infected, you're wasting your time, re-format, if it will let you, a virus tends to protect itself, safest way is change the harddrive, and re-install OS.
