My friend bought a computer but didn't realize that she needed to
"purchase"
the anti-virus after it's trial period ran. They use cable internet
service.
There was no anti-virus or firewall protection shortly after purchasing
the
computer. Kids accessed internet and MySpace frequently. I've run Trend
Micro and it found over 615 virus's. 2 MS Dos virus's and 1 internet
worm.
I thought of formatting the drive and reinstalling everything, they have
basically nothing on the computer. They are running XP Home Edition.
Any
advice on how to clean? Should I just format and reinstall from scratch?

In your situation, I would wipe the entire partition. Not just format it.
A restore type of install for a factory PC does this. A windows CD install,
you have to instruct it to do so at the beginning of the setup program.

But, I don't know where the 3rd party apps originated in the situation you
presented. That needs to be sourced from something. Verify existence of
same and any needed product codes/IDs. I've had one really bad problem with
AOL using same password to get online via AOL with a new install of OS and
AOL from its CD.

Tell your friend that the latest virus defintions is like knowing what to
shop for. The older definitions are no longer all in style. She might end
up putting something in the closet that will wreck her wardrobe as a result.
