Had a virus on my computer, don't know how..........

IT said something about 32w.skybot or something along those lines.

DId a system restore, will this solve the problem??

nope :)

lots of viri like to copy themselves into there and re infect themselves :) drop into safe mode, turn off system resore, remove virus restart pc, all should be good...
