My dumbass downloaded some thing off my xp from bootcamp from limewire and it seems to be a virus, making my internet run really slow then when i rebooted the screens in both xp and osx are like discolored and you can barely make out whats going on this problem is not good and i need it fixed asap so i can reformat xp or get rid of the virus else how.

Could this screen problem be due the virus or something totally difernet since it happens in osx as well.

please help out a newb once again.

A virus on the Windows partition will not affect OSX

You can try resetting the PRAM (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379) first, to rule that out... not sure it will help, but is always seems to be a good first start.

What is stored in PRAM (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1242)
