Hi
To delete the virus you will need to System Restore off then on again - this will also delete all existing checkpoints:
Right click on My Computer, select Properties and then the System Restore tab. Enable 'Turn off System Restore on all drives' and click Apply>OK. Then reboot your PC. After that first reboot go back into System Restore, disable 'Turn off System Restore on all drives' and click Apply>OK. Then reboot your PC again. After this second reboot the virus would have been deleted and you will have a newly created checkpoint.

Greetings --
The System Volume Information is the folder in which WinXP's
System Restore feature stores information used to recover from errors.
To clear viruses from the "System Volume Information," simply turn
off the System Restore feature (Start > All Programs > Accessories >
System Tools > System Restore, System Restore Settings), reboot, then
re-enable System Restore, and reboot one last time. This will delete
all of your Restore Points, including the corrupted one(s), and allow
you start with a clean slate.
