Try booting into safe mode with networking support and run online AV scanner like http://www.bitdefender.com/scanner/... .

You can try to scan your drives from AV boot disc like kaspersky (ftp://ftp.kaspersky.com/devbuilds/RescueDisk/). Hopefully your system files aren't damage badly and you can recover them.
