You need to install Norton, not just run it from a CD. You also need to update it every day or set it to automatically update. Then your computer will always be protected, and you won't get these viruses in the first place.

I'm sure there are some people here who can point you to all the fixes you need to run, but a computer infected with four viruses at any time is not going to be a great, stable system.

For the recurring problem with js.seeker and other vbs related infections, you need to disable Windows Scripting Host. Symantec's noscript.exe will do that conveniently for you:

You should also have "install on demand" unchecked in Internet Options > advanced.
