This is extremely urgent.

So your saying you want to format your pc to get rid of all these viruses? Why dont you just get a good virus scanner to remove them?

Well I wanted to wipe my computer clean anyway, so its like killing 2 birds with 1 stone.

Its really easy to reinstall windows

Best thing to do is to create a partition for the Windows OS and then use the left over partition for your programs and anything else you want to keep. That way if it happens again, you can just reinstall windows in the partition it was already in and be able to keep everything else on the other partition.
