Hi RobertLasher,

You cannot uninstall Windows XP, but you can install another version of Windows, or reinstall Windows XP.

For more information:

Install, reinstall, or uninstall Windows

The associated virus question, I would say that you try to run an antivirus full scan on the computer by using the anti-virus software installed on the computer. If you don't have any software antivirus installed on the computer, then try Microsoft Security Essentials:

Help protect your PC with Microsoft Security Essentials

Also, you have run the Microsoft Safety Scanner. The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

Microsoft safety scanner

I hope this helps.
