Help?

Im pretty sure my computer has alot of malware. 2 weeks ago i had a virus but i thounght i got rid of it. I ran a scan a full scan with malwarebytes and SAS and a thorought scan with avast. Only avast said that 7 items coud not be scanned. My computer started showing malware symptoms today. Windows defender woud'nt update and my computer froze. I'm in safe mode right now. What should I do?

Read the instructions, download and burn (maybe from another computer), finally use one of this rescue CD's:
1. Dr. Web (http://www.freedrweb.com/livecd/?lng=en)
2. Avira (http://www.free-av.com/en/tools/12/avira_antivir_rescue_system.html)
3. BitDefender (http://download.bitdefender.com/rescue_cd/)
4. Kaspersky (http://dnl-eu10.kaspersky-labs.com/devbuilds/RescueDisk/)
5. F-Secure (http://www.raymond.cc/blog/archives/2008/07/26/free-f-secure-rescue-cd-300-to-clean-virus-from-unbootable-windows/)

avast doesn't have a free one.

The problem is the only cd-rw discs I have with me have zero bytes free space.

I suggest a full computer on-line scanning:
BitDefender (http://www.bitdefender.com/scan8/ie.html)
ESET NOD32 (http://www.eset.com/onlinescan/)
F-Secure (http://support.f-secure.com/enu/home/ols.shtml)

For detection-only, not cleaning:
Kaspersky (http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner)
Trendmicro housecall (http://www.trendmicro.com/hc_intro/default.asp)

Isn't there a way i can remove data from a cd-rw disc?

Edit:  Should i stay running in safe mode.

I'm in safe mode right now.

Or try Norman Malware Cleaner which is meant to be run in safe mode
