How to Virus removal?

Question

Isolate compromised computers quickly to prevent threats from spreading further. Perform a forensic analysis and restore the computers using trusted media.
What does this mean? and how to correctly perform this "forensic analysis" I am using Norton Internet Security

Anonymous · Answer

the isolate compromised bit just means disconnect it from the network

forensic analysis will just be running a few virus/malware scans

the restore bit means wipe the hard disk and reinstall the operating system (Windows) using the original CD/DVD

Without re-installing the whole operating system make sure you update all protection programs the discount your internet connection and run all your scans and remove all infections before you reconnect to the internet but if your re-installing the operating system you basically the only hardware attached to your tower is your keyboard,mouse,monitor  and speakers. Always remember to back up any important data before doing a complete factory restore.
