Hello Vagish
I think your problem is not rectified by simply running any antivirus.

please follow these simple steps one by one and see the results for yourself

1.Boot XP in the safe mode.(press F8 many times during start up)
2.Enter the folder option in the control panel and
2.1 In the view tab check the "show hidden files and folders"
2.2 Uncheck the "Hide extensions for known file types & Hide protected Operating system files(Recommended)
2.3 Also uncheck use simple file sharing(Recommended)
2.4Click ok.
3.Disable System Restore feature in all drives.
4. Now open the drives one by one and try to enter the recycler folder and the System Volume information folder.
If you can't then right click on each of these folders one at a time and under the security tab add your full user name correctly and check the "full control" option.
5.Now enter these folders and press Ctrl+A and Shift+delete keys.
6.Now come out of these folders and repeat the same in all the drives.
7.After this Look out for the files named "autorun.inf" and for ISSDLL.dll.vbs(script file) and if found any of these select these and perform the "shift+delete" action.
8. Repeat step 7. in all the folders and sub folders in all the drives.
this will consume some time but it works.
9.Now its time for some registry editing
9.1Open the registry editor by typing "regedit" in the run and press ok.
9.2Navigate to the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / SOFTWARE / Microsoft / Windows / CurrentVersion / Run
and delete MS32DLL on the right hand side if found.
10. Type Prefetch in the run and shift delete all the .pf files in the folder.
12.Type %temp% and delete all the files you can in this folder too.
13.Delete all browsing history in all of the browsers that you have installed.
14.shift delete all the recent files in the recent document folder.(Type RECENT in run and press ok)
15. Install CCleaner and run the application to delete user tracks and history.
16.Now use an updated version of Avast Antivirus Home and schedulea boot up scan, if you can.Or at least use your antivirus and perform a complete system scan.
