If your computer has been infected by a virus, you need to use antivirus
software to remove the infection.
If the virus has damaged an application, you'll need to reinstall the
application. If the virus has damaged Windows you may be able to replace the
damaged dlls with the System File Checker, but you will probably need to
reinstall Windows.
You can obtain third party software that will over-write all areas of your
hard disk not occupied by files that are recognized by Windows. Search the
Internet for so-called file shredders. You might use this type of software
if you were getting rid of your computer, or if you share your computer with
other users and you fear those other users may have the desire and the
expertise to look at files you have deleted. Or if you work for certain
government agencies
