restart in safe mode and start running the antivirus

How do you restart in safe mode?

[Mixalot27]

Assuming your running windows xp, restart your computer, press and hold F8 as its booting up. A menu should come up allowing you to select safe mode.

Do a google search for the name of the viruses you have found. Follow the recommended steps for removing those viruses.
