Alpha AV virus Too late for vaccine!

I'm an old man. Not computer proficient. My PC OS is XP. Lost McAfee because of Alpha AV. Only protection currently is whatever Windows affords. Made several attempts to remove Alpha but to no avail (ctrl-alt-del routine; uninstall; Spyware Dr; beating PC with cane; etc). Google searches brought me here.
My dear friends, I would greatly appreciate your suggestions on how to send Alpha AV back to where it came from. I realize my problem is not new to your site. However, I was uncertain about the posting process and what responses, if any, could apply to me.
