Backup ALL your data - remember browser bookmarks, emails/contacts etc. along with the obvious docs, music, videos and photos.
Then format the HDD and do a clean XP install followed by many hours of Windows Updates to get up straight...
Then you just have to re-install all your applications and move your data back. But at the end of the day things will be nice and lively again :¬)
