Richard,
 You should turn off system restore before scanning your computer for
viruses and worms .

Windows prevents Antivirus programs access the restored files, thus your
antivirus may find the infected file , but not able to modify it.

Right click " My Computer " > properties > System Restore > Turn off system
restore in all drives .

Then scan your computer for viruses.

Hope this help
