100k virus and its impacts

Hey all,

Got a 100K virus it seems. It redirects all my search queries to random sites as well as blocking the installation/updating of AVG, Trend Micro and Webroot.
It has also prevented the computer from going online and made the CD-ROM drives disappear.
Subsequent reboots and hard installs of the Xp operating system can bring this functions back, but I still cannot run any kind of anti-virus scan to get it out.
Please help

thanks,

AP
