I don’t have any space CD’s lying around.
Instead of using a CD, could I somehow use my trusty USB (15Gb)?
Yes if you could go to my site (Link is the Globe under my Avatar )
Download WiNTBootic.exe
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/73555776/wintoboot.JPG
Drag and drop the GParted ISO to the programme in the space indicated
Tick the Format box and accept the warnings
Press Do It
You will see it progressing

It will let you know when it is done
Then boot from the USB and follow the destructions as previous ;D
Followed your instructions, it seems to have worked. This is my first reboot after removing the bad partition, and so far no sign of infection.
I’m going to run another full-system Avast! scan to see if it’s all gone.
Detected three MBR: Alureon type viruses. The kind that were in my first post that I could easily remove. (This kind has a specified file name in an easy to access place)
Am I free to move them to the chest?
Also. Is there anything else you want me to do?
Yes could you do one further aswMBR run please followed a an OTL quick scan
I did the aswMBR scan. The program worked this time, so I’m going to take that as a good sign. Anyway, it’s 2:45 AM here. I’m going to bed. I’ll do the OTL tomorrow.
Log attached if you want to see it.
That looks good - sleep tight ;D
And here’s the OTL log.
Anything else you want me to do, or am I free and clean?
Subject to no further problems 
I will remove my tools now and give some recommendations, but, I would like you to run for 24 hours or so and come back if you have any problems
Now the best part of the day ----- Your log now appears clean 
A good workman always cleans up after himself so…The following will implement some cleanup procedures as well as reset System Restore points:
Run OTL
[*]Under the Custom Scans/Fixes box at the bottom, paste in the following
:Commands [resethosts] [emptytemp] [Reboot]
[*]Then click the Run Fix button at the top
[*]Let the program run unhindered, reboot the PC when it is done
Run OTL and hit the cleanup button. It will remove all the programmes we have used plus itself.
We will now confirm that your hidden files are set to that, as some of the tools I use will change that
[*]Click Start.
[*]Open My Computer.
[*]Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
[*]Select the View Tab.
[*]Under the Hidden files and folders heading select Do not show hidden files and folders.
[]Click Yes to confirm.
[]Click OK.
