Need help to get rid of worm

My cousin had Windows 98 and had about 2000+ viruses on his comp. I tried getting rid of them but they kept on multiplying and I couldn't find the main virus. I decided to re-partition and re-format his hd and told him to buy Windows XP Pro which he did and I put it in for him. If I plug the ethernet cable in it says NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM and says it will shut down in x amount of seconds. I have found out that a lot of people have recieved this worm and I am wondering whether any1 know how to get rid of it.
