Use strong antiviruses with latest definition update. If you are looking for a strong free antivirus I recommend Mcaffee Virusscan 8.5.0i or Kaspersky 2009. Mcafee is my favourite 'cause you can prohibit any program you want from accessing your computer. Download the virus definition separately (the latest version is SDAT 5808 , of 11/23/09), if you have a slow internet connection. This is because the softwares in built updater fails to update for the first update because it finds the file to be very huge.

I'm not sure what do you mean by a "google chrome virus"
If you mean if there is possible a trojan for a googlebook, answer is YES but simply resetting your computer, you can get rid of it, though eventually, not from the effects.

CANT CLEAN UNWANTED COOKIES AS I WANT TO CLEAR UNWANTED FILES

Hi malachyfinne...
To clean your files and to clean any cookies,virus's,trojans,worms,etc you may have on your computer do the following.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Go to the following website and download,install and run the FREE Microsoft Safety Scanner.
It will remove the virus,trojan,worm,etc from your computer.
It may take quite a while to finish, it all depends on the size of your hard drive.
Once the Microsoft Safety Scanner is completed running, it should have removed the virus,trojan,worm,etc. from you computer, but if it didn't remove the virus,trojan,worm,etc from your computer then it will give you an option to connect (real time) with a Microsoft professional (FREE) and he will take over control of your computer (with you permission) and finish the removal process.
Please take time to rate me thumbs up

Trojans can be tough to get rid of, the best solution is to reinstall Windows xp, then try installing norton again. Reinstalling windows will rid your computer of whatever program or cookie that contains the trojan. Then norton should take over and keep these forms of malware at bay.
