Your problem is not a computer virus but some technical problem. Try to rewrite your HD's MBR "fdisk /mbr" (without the ").

According to all useful websites, a worm virus is a virus which spreads through computers eating away at the software on your files. It can also control your computer; but I don't know whether it is someone in the real world controlling it.
