Why you want to throw it out, by that pic, it's still got plenty of life in it.

YOU IDIOT... You don't throw a PC away because you got a virus... You reformat Windows...

Your hard drive is the box, with that red cable connected to it...

looks like this

So, you are going to take out an infected hard drive and save it...

Then throw away a perfectly good computer (without the hard drive) which contains 0 virus.

Viruses cannot be anywhere besides the hard drive.

If anything you want to take out the hard drive and throw it away...

This.

If you cannot remove it without virus removal software, just reformat (reinstall windows). If you don't have a windows installation disk, try to buy one or get one from a friend.

And remember, google is your friend.
But hard drives aren't that expansive.

Please read and understand this...

Do not get rid of your computer or HDD. The problem is with your Windows installation on the HDD, not the computer itself, and not the HDD itself.
You need to get anti-virus software to remove the virus(es), if that does not work, then get a new Windows installation disk.
You can contact Microsoft and they will send you a new disk, but you will need to supply your cd-key when installing.
This should be on a label on the side of your case. Should you be unable to contact Microsoft, there are other means of getting a Windows disk.

Assuming you have Windows XP or Vista, here are a few legal downloads...
Note: these are completely legal copies of Windows, they require a valid CD-key:

Windows XP Home: http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/4152774/Microsoft.Windows.XP.Home.Edition.SP3.OEM-_Untouched_
Windows XP Professional: http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/4754388/Windows_XP_Pro_Service_Pack_3_Retail
Windows Vista: http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/3556406/Windows.Vista.Iso.BillGates.To.Legit.MSDN.PATCH

Just download the one that matches your cd-key.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think the OP's a troll?
