Autoworm?

[nikkiv]

hello,

I seem to have picked up a worm called autorun? On my other computer. I have nothing imortant on that comp so someone told me it might be a good idea to reformat.

It is an Acer Travelmate 2480 laptop. I have my windows disc and have been told to press alt and F10 to restore it.

My question is if I do put it back to factory setting and reinstal my windows will that get rid of everything including the worm? Im just worried if I do that the worm could still be there?

Thanks
NikkiV!
